An obituary on Jay Gatsby


            Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was the most renowned teller of tales of America in the 20's, an epoch that he called "the Jazz age-. Published in the year 1925, the great Gatsby is one of the best fictional stories based on truth about his life in this time, wherein the American financial system climbed high, bringing extraordinary stages of richness to the country. What's striking about the book is that it is very much similar to his life, especially the concept of the American dream. The book involves a young gentleman born James Gatz, who is approximately in his thirties. He was raised on a farm, and he came from a hard-up upbringing in countrified North Dakota to become an extremely prosperous and successful individual. He attended St. Olaf College, but he dropped out after two weeks because he couldn't tolerate the janitorial job he took in order to reimburse his education. He served in the army in World War in 1917. Before he left to fight the war, he met Daisy, the girl of his dreams, who he fell head-over-heels with. After the war He studied at Oxford in order to gain an education. After that most of his life dealt with dedicating himself to winning back the girl of his dreams (Daisy) and also getting hold of millions of bucks. He bought a huge beautiful gothic mansion in West egg, which is home to the latest well-off individuals. It is those who have produced their riches freshly and have neither the group acquaintances nor the elegance to move along with the East Egg lifestyle. West Egg is differentiated by bountiful exhibition of riches and inelegance. His house not only was beautiful and portrayed richness and classiness, he also had a large swimming pool and an exquisite looking yellow limousine. He got all this due to getting involved in planned felony, dealing out illegitimate alcohol (also known as bootlegging) and doing business in stolen securities. He threw lavish parties every Saturday night.
