Presenting F. Scott Fitzgerald "The Great Gatsby"
《讀你聽2.2》聖誕前夕呈獻
費茨傑羅《大亨小傳》
1920年代 紐約市長島作背景的中篇
被評為美國文學「爵士時代」象徵
講述年輕神秘的富翁 Gatsby 對已為人妻的執著
本作是作者最大作 探討了墮落 理想主義 變革阻礙 社會巨變 放蕩
普遍認為是對美國夢的警醒
作品推出時並沒有得到極大回響
商業上失利 作者認爲作品不受到時代理解
繼而滿腔義憤 在自序溢於言表
多年後作者鬱鬱而終 仍沒有得到書評界接納
直到二戰時期 六十年代至今 大亨小傳風潮重新崛起
2020年初 纍積銷量三千萬冊 翻譯語言多達42種
作品提到不少爭議性題材
美國夢墮落 社會階級 繼承與自富 兩性 性取向 同性戀 環境保護 種族 反猶太裔
當中包含種族歧視字眼 敬請留意
