Beschreibung
"A little bit o' magic. A little bit of closure. A lot of style and refreshing writing! We all wanted this story when we read the last page of The Great Gatsby and saw the end credits for the film! Gatsby's Revenge makes for some great reading: exciting memorable characters, stylistic writing with an Avant Garde new focus; plus Gatsby is back!" Readers Choice
"Wonderful continuation to The Great Gatsby" Hector Nolasco

Revisiting Gatsby's mansion in 1928: "What had seemed so bright and new and yet somehow heraldic in those times in 1922, in the moonlit madcapppery and the day's bright Long Island Sound-reflected sunshine, had now a haggard hew, a ghostly pallor, as if something dredged from the waters of that very Sound, and allowed to lie there still, timeless, irreparable."
In a celebration of the publication of The Great Gatsby 100 years ago (1925), Gatsby's Revenge portrays a much older Nick Carraway, who is visited by his niece Pamela Buchanan in 1939 searching for the truth about her mother, Daisy, and the enigmatic Jay Gatsby. He ultimately tells her about the events chronicled in Fitzgerald's masterpiece, and in addition, about his time spent with Gatsby's "ghost" in 1928-1929, where Gatsby and Nick revisited a dark past and worked to obtain revenge and justice against the villainous Tom Buchanan. 12 years in the making, Gatsby's Revenge features tall tales and gun battles, bootleggers and flappers, dancing and music, sex and seduction, startling twists, as well as the return of Tom and Daisy Buchanan, Dan Cody, Ella Kaye, Jordan Baker, Meyer Wolfsheim, and of course, Jay Gatsby. And through it all the growing relationship between two lonely people: Nick Carraway and Pamela Buchanan.
