The Great Gatsby: Living the Dream in the Valley of Ashes


In which John discusses critical readings of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, including metaphors and symbols like the color yellow, the green light at the end of the dock, the eyes of Doctor TJ Eckleburg, the valley of ashes, and the American dream.

I also write books. They are not as good as The Great Gatsby. My new one, The Fault in Our Stars, is available for preorder now: http://dft.ba/-tfios All preorders will be autographed.
