Review of 'The Great Gatsby' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I have long been a fan of [a:F. Scott Fitzgerald|3190|F. Scott Fitzgerald|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1427040571p2/3190.jpg], but I have never believed that Gatsby was his best story. It is possible that I have been wrong all these years.

Or maybe it's simply that the story read by a man in his late 30s means something much different than the same story read twenty years earlier. There are more boats on the current, more past to reach ceaselessly back into.

Given how much has already been written about this book, it's probably best to leave my review at that.
