A review by 7anooch
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

5.0

Reading the book after watching the movie, I tried hard to separate the images of the movie with those of the book. As is usually the case of course, the book is much better.

This little novel is about the ever changing nature of memories, how a memory can become exaggeratedly embellished in one's mind. It is also about many more things that I would not bother to write because anyone who knows the story knows what it is (roughly) about.

One of my favorite aspects of the book is the narrator's, Nick Carraway's, personality. He is both naive and not so, and a bunch of other things that I cannot quite describe, but his style of narration is what gives the novel it's soul.

Lovely book.
