O grande Gatsby (1925) ? considerado a obra-prima de F. Scott Fitzgerald. ? um perfeito retrato dos loucos anos 20, nos quais o choque da "nova" modernidade se refl etia numa juventude impactada pela guerra e pela revolu??o industrial. O romance relata a hist?ria do enigm?tico Jay Gatsby, propriet?rio de uma luxuosa mans?o na zona mais rica das praias de Long Island, onde ele promove suntuosas festas, frequentadas por escritores, produtores de cinema, stars, esportistas, g?ngsteres e garotas bonitas em busca de ascens?o social. O mist?rio que paira sobre Gatsby, um homem elegante e indecifr?vel, e seu interesse pela bela Daisy Buchanan foram imortalizados no cinema por Robert Redford e Mia Farrow, que com suas interpreta??es deram vida ? ess?ncia da Era do Jazz.
