About this listen
This is Part II of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. This is an unabridged version.
"The Great Gatsby" is a seminal work of American literature penned by F. Scott Fitzgerald, set in the vibrant and reckless era of the 1920s known as the Jazz Age. The novel is narrated by Nick Carraway, a young, aspiring financier who moves to West Egg, Long Island, and becomes fascinated with his mysterious and fabulously wealthy neighbor, Jay Gatsby. Gatsby is a man defined by his extravagant parties and his undying love for Daisy Buchanan, a beautiful debutante who resides across the bay in the more aristocratic East Egg. Fitzgerald masterfully weaves themes of ambition, love, decadence, and disillusionment, all against the backdrop of the American Dream, creating a story that is as tragically beautiful as it is timeless. The glittering facade of Gatsby's world, much like the American Dream itself, masks a hollow core, revealing the corruption, moral bankruptcy, and ultimate futility of such unchecked materialism and excess.
