'No amount of fire or freshness can challenge what a man can store up in his ghostly heart.'Nicki Greenberg's adaptation of The Great Gatsbyis breathtaking - a wonderful homage to F. Scott Fitzgerald's jazz-age classic that brings to life the glitter, the melancholy and the grand and crumpled dreams of Fitzgerald's unforgettable characters. In the exquisitely realised setting of 1920s New York, a throng of fantastical creatures play out the drama, the wry humour and the tragedy of the novel.'Bizarre, absorbing and very funny . a bold idea that works to great effect.' Shaun Tan'The novel is a wonder . it has vitality to an extraordinary degree and glamour, and a great deal of underlying thought of unusual quality.
it is astonishing.' - Max Perkins, editor, in a letter to F. Scott Fitzgerald on reading the original draft of The Great Gatsby, 1924For copyright reasons this book is not for sale in the USA or UK.
