Produktinformationen "The Great Gatsby"

The Great Gatsby is F. Scott Fitzgerald's great American novel; sublime, deftly written, at times wickedly funny, and always tightly under control by a master of the language who was at the top of his powers. In Gatsby, Fitzgerald explored the Jazz Age with an intimate knowledge and perception that no other writer could have matched. Much of the happenings in the novel are pulled directly from Fitzgerald's own hedonistic experiences. A cautionary tale about reaching for the American Dream and being crushed by it. No one is certain where Gatsby's money comes from, but they are all willing to help him spend it. He yearns to reconnect with his lost love Daisy Buchanan, but is there any place for him in her world?. . .a mystical, glamourous story of today. - New York Times. . .a revelation of life . . . a work of art. - Los Angeles TimesHis style fairly scintillates with a genuine brilliance; he writes surely and soundly. - The New York Post. . .it contains some of the nicest little touches of contemporary observation you could imagine-so light, so delicate, so sharp. - New York Herald Tribune (lib)

Autor/in

F. Scott Fitzgerald

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) was an American author of novels and short stories. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the twentieth century. He finished four novels: This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, Tender is the Night and his most famous, The Great Gatsby. Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that treat themes of youth and promise along with despair and age. Peter Joucla studied performing arts at Middlesex University. He taught theatre and music in schools and colleges both in England and abroad for several years before gaining full employment in theatre, first as Musical Director with Trestle Theatre Company and later as an actor with The American Drama Group. He founded Tour De Force Theatre Company in 1995 and has since directed nearly fifty productions for the company, which have toured extensively to large-scale venues around the world. He is also a composer and playwright.

The Beautiful and Damned
Designed to appeal to the book lover, the Macmillan Collector's Library is a series of beautifully bound pocket-sized gift editions of much loved classic titles. Bound in real cloth, printed on high quality paper, and featuring ribbon markers and gilt edges, Macmillan Collector's Library are books to love and treasure. The Beautiful and Damned, F. Scott Fitzgerald's second novel, tells the story of Anthony Patch, a 1920s socialite and presumptive heir to a tycoon's fortune, the relationship with his wife Gloria, his service in the army, and alcoholism. Anthony and Gloria are young and gorgeous, rich and leisured and they dedicate their lives to the pursuit of happiness and we follow the intimate story of their marriage as it disintegrates under the weight of their expectations, fuelled by dissipation, jealousy and aimlessness. Fitzgerald skilfully portrays the Eastern elite as the Jazz Age begins its ascent, engulfing all classes into what will soon be known as Café Society. As with all of his other novels, it is a brilliant character study and is also an early account of the complexities of marriage and intimacy, largely based on Fitzgerald's relationship and marriage with Zelda Fitzgerald.With an afterword by Ned Halley.

The Great Gatsby
Generally considered to be F. Scott Fitzgerald's finest novel, The Great Gatsby is a consummate summary of the "roaring twenties", and a devastating expose of the 'Jazz Age'.Through the narration of Nick Carraway, the reader is taken into the superficially glittering world of the mansions which lined the Long Island shore in the 1920s, to encounter Nick's cousin Daisy, her brash but wealthy husband Tom Buchanan, Jay Gatsby and the mystery that surrounds him.The Great Gatsby is an undisputed classic of American literature from the period following the First World War and is one of the great novels of the twentieth century.

Mazisi Olan Kadin
Bütün oglanlarin büyümeyi saplanti haline getirmeleri cok eski bir gelenektir. Bunun sebebi, zaman zaman gencligin kisitlamalari karsisindaki sabirsizliklarini kelimelere dökmeleri, buna karsilik, cocuk olmaktan son derece memnun olduklari uzun zamanlarin kelimelerde degil, eylemde ifade bulmasidir. BasIl bazen azicik daha büyük olmak istiyordu, ama cok da degil.Mazisi Olan Kadindaki öykülerinde F. Scott Fitzgerald, yakin, ancak bir yandan da cok uzakta kalmis gecmisine yolculuk ediyor. Cocukluk yillarinin hasariliklarini, arkadaslara yaranma cabalarini, utanclarini, ilkgencligin ilk asklarini ve kurulan gelecek hayallerini Fitzgerald kendine özgü naif ve alayci bakisiyla resmediyor. Bu öykülerde anlatilan, Basil Duke Lee kadar yazarin da cocuklugu. ikinci kisimdaki bes öyküyse, bu kez JosephIne Perry isimli bir yüksek sosyete kizinin renkli, eglenceli ve sancili genclik maceralarini anlatiyor.Fitzgerald, Sevecendir Gece üzerinde calisirken Saturday Evening Post dergisine yazdigi bu öyküleri daha sonra bir roman haline getirmeyi istemis, ancak kisa ömrü sebebiyle bu hayalini gerceklestirememisti. Cay partileri, geziler ve danslarla gecen bir hayati, tatliya baglanan anlasmazliklari ve masum üzüntülerin anlatildigi Mazisi Olan Kadin, sanatcinin genc bir adam olarak nostaljik bir portresi.Fitzgerald, karakter ve toplum arasinda sosyolojinin ötesinde sairane bir gercegi görebilmistir. Tüm kisaligina ragmen bu hikayeler, Mozart ve Chopinden kisa parcalar dinlemek kadar keyifli.- The New York Times (lib)
