The Great Gatsby, published in 1925, is a novella by American author F. Scott Fitzgerald, set in 1920s New York City and Long Island, and considered a symbol of the Jazz Age in American literature. The story primarily revolves around the relentless pursuit of Daisy Buchanan by the young and enigmatic millionaire Jay Gatsby. This novel is considered Fitzgerald's greatest work, exploring themes of decadence, idealism, resistance to change, social upheaval, and debauchery; it offers a profound depiction of the Jazz Age and the Roaring Twenties, and is widely regarded as a sobering reflection on the American Dream.
Fitzgerald attended a party on Long Island's North Shore in 1923 and began writing the novel, describing it in his own words as "something new—something extraordinary, beautiful, simple, chaotic form." However, Fitzgerald's progress was slow, and after completing the first draft, he went to the French Riviera in 1924. His editor, Maxwell Perkins, thought the story was too ambiguous and persuaded the author to revise it the following winter. Fitzgerald was unsure of the novel's title, at one point naming it *Trimacio of West Egg
