    Summary

    Not Great. Just Gatsby.

    This in-depth exploration of Jay Gatsby's past comes from years of OBSESSIVE research and work, all with my usual desire to completely recontextualize and destroy your understanding of this stupid book. Nick had his say, but there's a lot he doesn't know about Jay. A lot he might have been told but isn't willing to put on paper—or worse, things Jay couldn't bear to tell Nick.
    This story will go a chapter per year, covering his time with Dan, his time between Dan and the war, his time with Daisy—and just why she's so impossibly important to him—his years rising up with Wolfshiem, and that one final year before he dies. We'll get to the very heart of the manipulation and desperation that pushed his man until his untimely end.

    Summary

    Summary

    This is a story about a rich man in love, a man who has enough secrets to fill a lifetime. The man's name is Gatsby, Jay Gatsby. Gatsby lived on the west egg and was new money, meaning he came upon a large fortune late in his life, that does not mean he was old. In fact, he was a healthy 32 year old, although healthy is a strong word because:

    He was a lovesick fool.

    Summary

    It was in this way that the Buchanans lived out their lives – after that fateful summer, I seldom saw them. Sometimes someone would write about them in the paper, mentioned as honored guests of so and so, or caught together in a picture from some elegant party. Unlike Gatsby, I never immemorialized these mentions or photographs. Their worth in my eyes had forever diminished.

    Over the years, after the parties were over and all our knees started to ache in the evenings, Daisy sent me a letter.

    Summary

    Gatsby really was beautiful. He slicks his hair in the morning with his favorite comb, a gift I gave him some time ago. He spends almost ten minutes every day just picking a suit since he’s too indecisive about which one to wear for the day. His eyes were a soft brown, so simple and even simpler to get lost in them. No. I shouldn’t.
