Synopsis "The Great Gatsby: The Only Authorized Edition "

The only authorized mass market edition of the twentieth-century classic, featuring F. Scott Fitzgerald's final revisions, a foreword by his granddaughter, and a new introduction by National Book Award winner Jesmyn Ward. This edition of The Great Gatsby has been updated by F. Scott Fitzgerald scholar James L.W. West III to include the author's final revisions and features a note on the composition and text, a personal foreword by Fitzgerald's granddaughter, Eleanor Lanahan--and an introduction by two-time National Book Award winner Jesmyn Ward. Featuring the iconic original cover art, this is a must-have for students and Gatsby fans. The Great Gatsby, Fitzgerald's third book, stands as the supreme achievement of his career. First published in 1925, this quintessential novel of the Jazz Age has been acclaimed by generations of readers. The story of the mysteriously wealthy Jay Gatsby and his love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan is an exquisitely crafted tale of America in the 1920s.

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (Saint Paul, Minnesota, September 24, 1896-Hollywood, California, December 21, 1940) was a military officer, host, novelist, and American writer, widely known as one of the finest authors of the 20th century, whose works are paradigmatic of the Jazz Age. Fitzgerald is considered a member of the Lost Generation of the twenties.

He wrote five novels: The Great Gatsby, Tender Is the Night, This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, and The Last Tycoon, which, although unfinished, was published after his death. He also wrote numerous short stories, many of which deal with youth and promise, age and despair.
