    It's summertime, and the young, popular crowd, home from prep school and college, are looking to have fun. Unfortunately for Marjorie Harvey, her dull cousin Bernice is visiting for a month. Even though Marjorie is one of the most popular girls in town, nobody wants to hang out with poor Bernice, whose conversation is mostly limited to painfully awkward inquiries about the weather.

    There was once a priest with cold, watery eyes, who, in the still of the night, wept cold tears. He wept because the afternoons were warm and long, and he was unable to attain a complete mystical union with our Lord. Sometimes, near four o'clock, there was a rustle of Swede girls along the path by his window, and in their shrill laughter he found a terrible dissonance that made him pray aloud for the twilight to come. At twilight the laughter and the voices were quieter, but several times he had walked past Romberg's Drug Store when it was dusk and the yellow lights shone inside and the nickel taps of the soda-fountain were gleaming, and he had found the scent of cheap toilet soap desperately sweet upon the air.

    The Perfect Life, by Francis Scott Fitzgerald, is a short story published in 1929. "He planned out the years of waiting, each one helping the other to lead the perfect life, neither of them ever kissing anybody else-he would insist on that, absolutely insist on it; she must promise not even to see Skiddy De Vinci-and then marriage and a life of service, perfection, fame and love..."

    Cuando yo era más joven y más vulnerable, mi padre me dio un consejo en el que no he dejado de pensar desde entonces. «Antes de criticar a nadie», me dijo, «recuerda que no todo el mundo ha tenido las ventajas que has tenido tú». Eso fue todo, pero, dentro de nuestra reserva, siempre nos hemos entendido de un modo poco común, y comprendí que sus palabras significaban mucho más. En consecuencia, suelo reservarme mis juicios, costumbre que me ha permitido descubrir a personajes muy curiosos y también me ha convertido en víctima de no pocos pesados incorregibles. La mente anómala detecta y aprovecha enseguida esa cualidad cuando la percibe en una persona corriente, y se dio el caso de que en la universidad me acusaran injustamente de intrigante, por estar al tanto de los pesares secretos de algunos individuos inaccesibles y difíciles. La mayoría de las confidencias no las buscaba yo: muchas veces he fingido dormir, o estar sumido en mis preocupaciones, o he demostrado una frivolidad hostil al primer signo inconfundible de que una revelación íntima se insinuaba en el horizonte; porque las revelaciones íntimas de los jóvenes, o al menos los términos en que las hacen, por regla general son plagios y adolecen de omisiones obvias. No juzgar es motivo de esperanza infinita. Todavía creo que perdería algo si olvidara que, como sugería mi padre con cierto esnobismo, y como con cierto esnobismo repito ahora, el más elemental sentido de la decencia se reparte desigualmente al nacer.

    Raconté par un voisin devenu son ami, le roman tourne autour du personnage de Gatsby, jeune millionnaire charmant au passé trouble qui vit luxueusement dans une villa toujours pleine d'invités. Par certains aspects, le livre peut paraître une critique complexe de la bourgeoisie, de son opulence et de sa superficialité, où chaque personnage est prêt à tout pour parvenir à ses fins. Nick Carraway, un jeune homme américain du Middle West atteignant la trentaine, se rend à New York pour travailler dans la finance comme agent de change. Par hasard, il trouve à louer une petite bicoque à Long Island, zone résidentielle très huppée et snob de la banlieue newyorkaise. Sa demeure, presque invisible, est située dans West Egg entre deux énormes et luxueuses villas. De là, la vue est imprenable sur East Egg, l'endroit le plus cossu et sélect de toute la zone. C'est là qu'habitent Daisy, sa cousine germaine et Tom Buchanan, son mari, issu de la même promotion que Nick à l'université Yale. Nick se rend un soir chez les Buchanan, qu'il connaît à peine, sur invitation de Daisy. Tom, beau et riche colosse, mais quelque peu bourru paraît végéter auprès de Daisy, laquelle semble tout autant s'ennuyer ferme avec son mari. Elle passe le plus clair de son temps avec son amie Jordan Baker, joueuse de golf professionnelle. Tom, peu de temps après, demande à Nick de l'accompagner pour lui présenter sa maîtresse, Myrtle Wilson, la femme d'un garagiste sur la route qui relie New York à Long Island. Nick, témoin de l'inconstance de Tom, de l'enlisement du couple qu'il forme avec Daisy, n'aurait guère d'intérêt à fréquenter les Buchanan s'il n'y avait le rapprochement de plus en plus sensible avec la belle Jordan. Celleci s'étonne qu'il ne connaisse pas Gatsby puisqu'il habite West Egg, comme lui, et qu'on ne parle que de cet homme à la richesse fabuleuse. Gatsby, justement, c'est son voisin. C'est lui qui possède l'immense maison très animée qui occulte celle misérable de Nick. Gatsby donne fréquemment des réceptions somptueuses qui accueillent des centaines de convives. Mais qui est Jay Gatsby? D'où vientil? Que faitil? Les rumeurs les plus folles circulent sur son passé et sa fortune, même au sein de sa propre maison. C'est ce que Nick brûle de découvrir lorsqu'un jour il reçoit une invitation pour passer la soirée chez Gatsby. Une incroyable histoire va lier Nick, Tom, Gatsby, Jordan, Myrtle et Daisy pendant cet été 1922... (Wikipedia)

Gatsby lever det gode liv, men trods en enorm omgangskreds er der faktisk ingen der kender ham.
