Critics have called it Fitzgerald’s greatest novel. The poet S. S. Eliot read it three times and called it the first step forward for the American novel since Henry James. H. L. Menchen praised the charm and beauty of the writing in The Great Gatsby and Fitzgerald’s penetrating social sense. Thomas Wolfe hailed it as Fitzgerald’s greatest work. It is the story of the wealthy Joe Gatsby, his love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan, and the lavish parties on Long Island at a time when “gin” was the national drink and sex was the national obsession, as the New York Times noted. It is a masterfully crafted novel about America in the 1920s, a novel that verges on myth, full of poetic beauty and harsh realism, magic, romance and mysticism. The Great Gatsby is one of the great classics of twentieth-century literature.
