About this listen
The only edition of the beloved classic that is authorized by Fitzgerald’s family and from his lifelong publisher.
An all-new recording published for the 100th anniversary of The Great Gatsby, this production presents the enduring original text, updated with the author’s own revisions, a foreword by his granddaughter, and with an introduction by National Book Award winner Jesmyn Ward.
The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s third book, stands as the supreme achievement of his career. First published by Scribner in 1925, this quintessential novel of the Jazz Age has been acclaimed by generations of readers. The story of the mysteriously wealthy Jay Gatsby and his love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan is an exquisitely crafted tale of America in the 1920s.
Critic Reviews
"Seth Numrich narrates this classic Jazz Age novel with an introduction by Jesmyn Ward, foreword by Eleanor Lanahan, and afterword by James L.W. West III. The story follows the mysterious Jay Gatsby through the eyes of Nick Carraway, and Nick’s cousin, Daisy. Numrich captures Nick’s optimism and Daisy’s softness with his lively narration. Excelling at long passages full of winding phrases, Numrich brings this novel, now 100 years old, to life. Ward’s illuminating introduction prepares listeners for a new experience with Gatsby. Lanahan, Fitzgerald’s granddaughter, shares her own history with the text in a sure, comforting voice. West provides context on Fitzgerald’s composition and text in a serious, gravelly voice. This audiobook, which includes the author’s final revisions, is an exquisite listening experience."
