After moving to Long Island, New York, narrator Nick Carraway visits his cousin, Daisy Buchanan, and her husband, Tom. The Buchanans live lives of luxury, contrasting with Carraway's modest lifestyle. Carraway also meets his rich, mysterious neighbor, Jay Gatsby. Gatsby throws lavish parties for the well-to-do and famous. Carraway learns that Gatsby has loved Daisy Buchanan for years, and Gatsby hopes his parties will lead to a reunion. First published in 1925, this unabridged edition of The Great Gatsby compares new wealth to generational, inherited wealth and illuminates a cross section of American society in the 1920s.
