This is the definitive, textually accurate edition of a classic of twentieth-century literature, The Great Gatsby. The story of the fabulously wealthy Jay Gatsby and his love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan has been acclaimed by generations of readers. But the first edition contained a number of errors resulting from Fitzgerald's extensive revisions and a rushed production schedule. Subsequent printings introduced further departures from the author's words. This edition, based on the Cambridge critical text, restores all the language of Fitzgerald's masterpiece. Drawing on the manuscript and surviving proofs of the novel, along with Fitzgerald's later revisions and corrections, this is the authorized text -- The Great Gatsby as Fitzgerald intended it.

Review of 'The Great Gatsby' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

I'm really not much of a short story person. If they all have something in common or something connecting them in some way – for instance, they all have the same author or topic – that I might really enjoy them, but for the most part, they're not really my cup of tea.
This is a bunch of classics by classic authors, and they really DON'T have anything in common. I really liked one or two of them, but for the most part, it was only okay. But I am looking forward to my NEXT book – about global warming and the devastation potentially caused by it.
