Welcome!

Welcome to my classic novel study! This blog will be an unravelling of the novel The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Not only will I analyse and comment on the characters, themes, and overall content of this novel, but I will also be exploring the life and personality of Mr. Fitzgerald. My goals for this blog are to reflect upon The Great Gatsby, to question its value as a classic novel, and to determine its effects on myself as a reader, writer, and learner. At the bottom of this page is a list of links to provide some further insights and information on this novel and other works by F. Scott Fitzgerald, as well as information on the author himself.

I hope you will enjoy my blog as we dive together into the glittering, glamourous, and tragic world of Jay Gatsby.
