From the publisher
Considered to be one of the best American novels and perhaps the enduring symbol of the Jazz Age, the story of Jay Gatsby portrays a man who represents the best and the worst of the American Dream. His desire is to accumulate money and to spend it ostentatiously with the purpose of pursuing the one thing he really wants in life: the love of the beautiful but frivolous Daisy Buchanan. In this illustrated edition, Fitzgerald s classic text is accompanied and reinterpreted by the talented American graphic artist Jonny Ruzzo. His magnificent illustrations build a visual and temporal bridge that modernizes the classic book and brings the readers of today closer to it by providing a new dimension that reinforces the undeniable applicability of one of the most read and celebrated novels of contemporary literature."Considerada como una de las mejores novelas estadounidenses y quiza el simbolo mas perdurable de la Edad del Jazz, la historia de Jay Gatsby retrata un hombre quien representa lo mejor y lo peor del sueno americano.Tiene unadisposicion a acumular dinero y gastarlo con ostentacion a fin de perseguir lo unico que en realidad le interesa en la vida: el amor de la hermosa pero frivola Daisy Buchanan.
