《了不起的盖茨比》以尼克的口吻叙说了盖茨比的故事。小说家以凝炼而富有浓郁抒情气息的语言,画出“爵士时代”一个“美国梦”从鼓乐喧天到梦碎人亡的悲哀,情节、人物、对话、场景、主题等等熔铸成一件完美的艺术品。正如同时代中国小说家沈从文所说,一座希腊小庙,“精致、结实、匀称,形体虽小而不纤巧。”
盖茨比是20世纪二十年代美国文明孕育出来的产儿。“美国梦”像一个在半空游荡的色彩斑斓的大气球,使一代美国人眼花缭乱,神魂颠倒。菲茨杰拉德说过:“这是美国历史上最会纵乐、最绚丽的时代,关于这个时代将大有可写的。”他所大写特写的正是这个时代,并且将它命名为“爵士时代”,因此人们往往称他为“爵士时代”的“编年史家”和“桂冠诗人”。不妨说,《了不起的盖茨比》不仅是“爵士时代”的一曲挽歌,一个与德莱塞的代表作异曲同工的美国的悲剧,也是作家本人“灵魂的黑夜”的投影,“在那里永远是凌晨3点钟”。
内容简介
Set in the post-Great War Long Island/New York world of the rich. The narrator, Nick Carraway, sympathetically records the pathos of Gatsby's romantic dream which founders on the reality of corruption, the insulated selfishness of Tom and Daisy, and the cutting edge of violence.
作者简介
F. Scott Fitzgerald was one of the major American writers of the twentieth century -- a figure whose life and works embodied powerful myths about our national dreams and aspirations. F. Scott Fitzgerald was born in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1896, attended Princeton University, and published his first novel, This Side of Paradise, in 1920. He left us one sure masterpiece, The Great Gatsby; a near-masterpiece, Tender Is the Night; and a gathering of stories and essays that together capture the essence of the American experience. His writings are insightful and stylistically brilliant; today he is admired both as a social chronicler and a remarkably gifted artist.

精彩书评
"One of the greatest works of American literature...a timeless evocation of the allure, corruption and carelessness of wealth."
—The Times
"It is a marvellously suggestive novel... a parable of modern America, and by extension of modern life."
—A. N. Wilson, Daily Telegraph
"The first and greatest modern novel, it has beautiful women, lavish parties, romance, betrayal and murder woven together in an intricately structured plot. A prescient comment on the dying days of a gilded age that is brilliant entertainment with a very eloquent insight."
—Mirror
