Description
Summary:Omnibus celebrates the 75th anniversary of the publication of The Great Gatsby, literature's greatest embodiment of the American Dream and the American nightmare. The Great Gatsby is F Scott Fitzgerald's masterpiece. Like no other novel, it captures the reckless pleasure seeking and exuberance of 1920s New York at the height of economic boom, a period Fitzgerald famously christened 'The Jazz Age'. Today more copies are sold every month in the US than were sold during the whole of Fitzgerald's lifetime. The author's granddaughter Eleanor Lanahan and writers Hunter S Thompson, George Plimpton and Jay McInerney contribute to the film.
