Summary
The year is 1922, and young Nick Carraway moves to the village of West Egg, where he meets his new neighbour, the enigmatic new-money millionaire, Jay Gatsby. As he and Gatsby become acquainted, Nick is thrown into a world full of dazzling parties, unrequited love, and unchecked idealism. Gatsby is surrounded by riches, but still yearns for the love of a woman who chose another man. Gatsby waits for her every night, using a green light at the end of his dock to call out to her from across the water. Daisy, stuck in a loveless marriage with the old-money and enormously wealthy Tom Buchanan, dreams of what could have been - and gets a taste for it after she is re-acquainted with Gatsby through Nick
