THE GREAT GATSBY


THE GREAT GATSBY

AED 15.00

Jay Gatsby wants just one thing, the love of Daisy Buchanan. His quest has led him from poverty to untold riches, but he will not find peace until he is reunited with Daisy. Nick Carraway, who was once Jay’s neighbour, begins this tale in 1922, when he moved to West Egg, Long Island, to seek his fortune as a bond salesman. He travels to East Egg to meet his cousin Daisy and her husband Tom. Once there he meets a professional golfer named Jordan Baker. The Buchanans and Jordan Baker lead lives of luxury, making Nick’s own life seem modest in contrast. He comes across Jay Gatsby suddenly as Gatsby stands in the dark, with his arms stretched out towards the water of the Sound. Nick discovers that Tom has a mistress, and Tom takes him to meet her. Later, he is invited to Gatsby’s weekly party, and meets Jordan Baker again, and Gatsby himself. Nick grows close to Gatsby, and Nick begins dating Jordan, despite his conviction that she’s dishonest. Soon he learns of Gatsby’s affections for Daisy, and how he met her when he was in the army, but could not be together with her for lack of money. All of Gatsby’s wealth was a direct result of his quest to be able to take care of Daisy and be worthy of her hand. What ensues is a fiery passion which could end everything Gatsby has built, and possibly his life if left unchecked.
