The Gatsby Reader is an analysis of the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic American novel, The Great Gatsby. This book explored Fitzgerald's use of Nick Carraway as the narrator and how that affects the story. It also looks at this novel as a failed Grail Quest.
This is an insightful look at a beloved story. As with any kind of an in-depth literary analysis, it's hard to find a definitive response. To some extent, we must always relegate our thoughts to mere speculation. I don't agree (at least at first glance) with all of the conclusions here, but they're all chewy food for thought. I definitely won't be looking at Gatsby in the same way ever again, and I appreciate having had my brain stretched.
