Fitzgerald saw the American Dream as the pursuit of happiness and success through hard work, determination, and opportunity. He portrayed it as a deceptive ideal tainted by materialism, unattainable expectations, and moral decay. Fitzgerald's characters in "The Great Gatsby" embody the corruptible nature of this dream, leading to disillusionment and tragedy.
