American Dream of the 1920\'s

The slap-up Gatsby, write by F. Scott Fitzgerald, is a passing praised American book and has been need by millions of people almost the world. Fitzgeralds insightful societal views and perspicacious commentary regarding the class social system of the 1920s. During the 20s, the Harlem Renaissance was taking place, and this was the term given to the cultural, social, and artistic explosions that were taking place in Harlem, NYC, amongst the end of World contend I and the mid 1930s. In the The Great Gatsby, the motif of the American moon is displayed through three-fold characters (such as Myrtle Wilson and Jay Gatsby) by focusing on those in high-society.
