4 stars

Nick Carraway nos cuenta de cómo conoció a Gatsby, un hombre rico y enigmático que vive junto a él y da grandes fiestas a las que todo el mundo asiste, de quien todos hablan y al parecer nadie conoce muy bien. En cambio, Nick si tendrá la oportunidad de compartir con él, de ir investigando su pasado y su presente, siendo además un poco cómplice de sus intereses amorosos y todo lo que hay detrás de esa historia.

La verdad es que esperaba algo más. La novela relata un mundo donde un hombre se propone surgir y ganar dinero con un fin muy definido, “ser digno” de su gran amor, un amor que posiblemente ha existido únicamente en su corazón y en su mente, con consecuencias bastante inesperadas.

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.
