The Great Gatsby, published by Aatos Editions, presents one of the greatest classics in literary history in a charming new cover design by Tony Eräpuro. Written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the novel tells the story of the restless jazz generation of the 1920s and explores the power of love and money.
This edition includes not only the novel but also a section about Fitzgerald’s life and work, featuring his 1931 essay "Echoes of the Jazz Age". The essay, which analyzes the 1920s, provides even deeper insight into the novel’s themes.
Scott Fitzgerald is known as the definitive author of the Jazz Age – the glittering, alcohol-fuelled, and outrageously freewheeling era of post-war euphoria. The Great Gatsby in turn is seen as his magnum opus, as the peak of his artistry – a classic depiction of the era, and of the human yearning for things just out of reach, of the powers of love and money.
