Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby," a Heirloom edition, with special arrangements from Scribner's and The Bodley Head Ltd., Ilustrated by Bruce Dean, published in 1982. Bound in burgundy leather, the book has marbled paper end leaves, a satin book marker, acid-free paper, Symth-sewn binding, hubbed spine, gold gilding on three edges---in near FINE condition. F. Scott Fitzgerald, who lived from 1896-1940, was born in St. Paul, MINNESOTA. He married Zelda Sayre, an Alabama beauty, and they lived in Europe and were part of the group that Gertrude Stein called the "lost generation." " The Great Gatsby," published in 1925, follows a cast of characters living in the fictional town of WEST EGG on prosperous LONG ISLAND in the summer of 1922. The story concerns the young and mysterious millionaire, JAY GATSY, and his quixotic passion and obsession for the beautiful former debutante, DAISY BUCHANAN. The novel explores themes of decadence, idealism, resistance to change, social upheaval and excess, creating a portrait of the Jazz Age or the Roaring Twenties that has been described as a cautionary tale regarding the American Dream. 195 pages----a GORGEOUS book!
