Student Copy of Gatsby and the Jazz Age: American Dream or Nightmare:

F. Scott Fitzgerald's intent in The Great Gatsby, was "to state the American dream as dramatically, as passionately, as possible – and at the same time, to hold it up to moral judgment, to see what lies and terrors lay beneath its garlands and banners and ‘good times’.” The materials in this collection are designed to encourage readers of The Great Gatsby to explore and demonstrate their understanding of the many layers of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic American novel.
