Indeed, The Great Gatsby is less involved with human emotion than any book of comparable fame I can think of. None of its characters are likable. None of them are even dislikable, though nearly all of them are despicable.ну что ж, не так удивительно для человека, который регулярно перечитывает Pride & Prejudice...
Yet Fitzgerald also longed to be a glittering swine himself, and acted like one anytime he could afford it.so what if i may ask? he blames Fitzgerald for moral duplicity, for detachment - for bystander position of the reader and Nick the narrator. Then he blames Fitzgerald for the book not being funny. But why? Why this book has to be funny? Who said every book has to be funny?
If you are a romantic, then you will not like The Great Gatsby, because it is a novel which is void of romance, and that is the point. © SAMNASH

But, Ms. Schulz, consider re-reading the text--without dwelling on the man who wrote it and his many hypocrisies... © SWEETYELLOWCAR
