Twenty new titles in the much-loved and hugely successful Penguin English Library series.

'He had one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it, that you may come across four or five times in life.'

Jay Gatsby is the man who has everything. But one thing will always be out of his reach . . . Everybody who is anybody is seen at his glittering parties. Day and night his Long Island mansion buzzes with bright young things drinking, dancing and debating his mysterious character. For Gatsby - young, handsome, fabulously rich - always seems alone in the crowd, watching and waiting, though no one knows what for. Beneath the shimmering surface of his life he is hiding a secret: a silent longing that can never be fulfilled. And soon this destructive obsession will force his world to unravel.

The Penguin English Library - collectable general readers' editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century to the end of the Second World War.

The most perfectly crafted work of fiction to have come out of America -- Professor Tony Tanner
He (F Scott Fitzgerald) was better than he knew, for in fact and in the literary sense he invented a "generation" * New York Times *
