  • Table of Contents

This volume marks one hundred years of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, exploring why the novel continues to resonate in the twenty-first century. Written in 1925, The Great Gatsby remains one of the best-known novels from the United States. Bringing together essays by leading scholars of American literature and culture, the book offers close, contextual and comparative readings that move beyond familiar interpretations of this novel. The essays explore the novel’s engagement with questions of race, class, gender, aspiration, and capitalism, as well as the text’s reception and cinematic adaptations. Intended for students, teachers, and researchers, this collection reaffirms The Great Gatsby’s lasting cultural and critical significance as a timeless literary classic.
