An undisputed masterpiece of twentieth-century literature, perfect for Fitzgerald lovers and classics collectors alike.
Set against a backdrop of jazz music, bootlegging, and lavish parties, The Great Gatsby is the story of Midwesterner Nick Carraway’s curious introduction to the decadent world of his mysterious, wealthy neighbor Jay Gatsby, whose thirst for riches is matched only by his tragic obsession with the beautiful Daisy Buchanan.
Penned in the “roaring twenties,” the novel continues to be the subject of numerous film and stage adaptations and has become a fixture in the American classroom. This dangerously propulsive tale of glitz and glamour continues to be relevant as readers long for escapist novels—a chance to flee into Gatsby’s famed mansion and lose oneself in the rush of opulence.
The Great Gatsby audiobook is brought to life by Tim Robbins, famed American actor, screenwriter, director, producer, and musician.

I never know such a short book could be so long.

So, straight up honest with you guys… half of the time I had no idea what I was reading. I can see how people are loving this book through the core. While I just… enjoyed it? I don’t know. As I literally just said, I did enjoy reading this modern classic. It was differently written, compared to the other books I’ve read. So, it was quite a challenge but it didn’t stop me. I loved the aesthetic of the book and how it all played out. Did I get it and understood the lessons in this book, like you always get out of classics, ehh no. We’re just not gonna look at that. I also must say that I already watched the movie so I knew some things already but the ending took me by suprise again. I’m also very much in the mood to watch the movie now but that’s momentarily not possible.

I love this book and the old jazz music between the chapters. The voice actor is great!
