《瞭不起的蓋茨比》(名著名譯插圖本)弗·司各特·菲茨傑拉德(1896-1940),美國二十世紀最傑齣的作傢之一。《瞭不起的蓋茨比》是他最著名的代錶作。二十世紀二十年代的美國,空氣裏彌漫著歡歌與縱飲的氣息。一個偶然的機會,窮職員尼剋闖入瞭揮金如土的大富翁蓋茨比隱秘的世界,驚訝地發現,他內心惟一的牽絆竟是對河岸那盞小小的綠燈——燈影婆娑中,住著心愛的黛西。然而,冰冷的現實容不下縹緲的夢,到頭來,蓋茨比心中的女神隻不過是凡塵俗世的物質女郎。當一切真相大白,蓋茨比的悲劇人生亦如煙花般,璀璨隻是一瞬,幻滅纔是永恒。一闋華麗的“爵士時代”的挽歌,在菲茨傑拉德筆下,如詩如夢,在美國當代文學史上留下瞭墨色濃重的印痕。
When F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote THE GREAT GATSBY in the early 1920s, the American Dream was already on the skids. Originally based on the idea that the pursuit of happiness involves not only material success but moral and spiritual growth, the dream had by Fitzgerald's time become increasingly focused on money and pleasure-a phenomenon the high-living writer was only too familiar with. In THE GREAT GATSBY, Fitzgerald looks deeply into himself and his milieu to create the story of James Gatz, a self-educated nobody from North Dakota who has amassed a fortune and adopted the persona of Jay Gatsby, an Oxford-educated man about town, for the sole purpose of winning back the heart of Daisy, the woman he loved in his youth. Daisy is now married to Tom Buchanan-a brutal, ignorant racist who embodies the corruption that can come with unlimited wealth. As Gatsby, Daisy, and Tom-and the narrator, Daisy's cousin Nick Carroway, who serves as the author's spokesman-play out the drama in a small Long Island town (the East Hampton of its day), Fitzgerald makes it increasingly clear that life is meaningless when it is based on money and glamour at the expense of the solid American values of self-reliance and hard work-and Gatsby's sad end underscores the point. THE GREAT GATSBY has long been celebrated as the archetypal American novel, and, just as Fitzgerald's book grew out of the tradition that included Henry James and Edith Wharton, its influence on later writers from J. D. Salinger to John O'Hara cannot be overestimated. The book remains vividly alive and widely read years after its writing.

評分看《瞭不起的蓋茨比》完全是因為對村上君的愛,在書的封腰上,村上這樣評價這本書“作為小說傢,我把它看作一個標準,一把尺子,是看清自己位置的一件標誌,然後有時嘆息,有時又全身緊張,就好像命中注定一樣始終牽扯著我。說是不可思議也行,但如果小說裏沒有瞭不可思議,又...
