The Great Gatsby is a novel vividly recreating the legendary romantic history of the Fitzgerald couple, bringing to life the glittering Jazz Age. A classic work marking the artistic transition of Fitzgerald from youthful to mature style.Hailed as one of the greatest English novels of the 20th century, The Great Gatsby serves as a magnificent requiem for the Jazz Age and one of the most influential works on Haruki Murakami.

Set in 1920s America, where the air is filled with revelry and indulgence, the story follows Nick, a poor clerk who accidentally stumbles into the extravagant world of the wealthy Gatsby. Nick is astonished to discover that Gatsby’s only true longing is tied to a small green light across the river—where Daisy, the woman he loves, resides.

However, reality cannot accommodate dreams. Ultimately, the goddess of Gatsby's heart is revealed to be just an ordinary woman bound by materialistic desires. When all truths are uncovered, Gatsby's tragic life mirrors fireworks: dazzling for a moment but fading into eternal disillusionment.

This luxurious requiem of the Jazz Age, rendered in Fitzgerald's poetic and dreamlike prose, has left an indelible mark on the history of contemporary American literature.
