"The Great Gatsby" makes the reader think of famous magicians like "The great Houdini" and "The Great Blackstone". This suggests that the persona of Jay Gatsby is a masterful illusion.
Gatsby's talent for reinvention is what makes him "Great"
("... and he created just the sort of Jay Gatsby that a seventeen year old boy would be likely to invent... and to this conception, he was faithful to the end."),
and his ability to turn hopes and dreams into reality.
(His American Dream to achieve Daisy)
"The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald follows Jay Gatsby, a wealthy and mysterious millionaire, as he pursues his lost love, Daisy Buchanan, amid the excess and hedonism of the Jazz Age. The novel explores themes of love, wealth, and the American Dream, ultimately revealing the emptiness and tragedy behind the facade of the glamorous lifestyle.
In 1929 New York, Nick Carroway is in a mental hospital. The doctors tell him it is a good idea for him to write down the events that got him there. Seven years earlier he had moved to Long Island right beside a mansion of a very mysterious millionaire named Jay Gatsby. He soon realizes that Gatsby has recreated himself as a interesting millionaire simply to win back the heart of Nick's cousin, Daisy.
