About This Book
One hundred years ago, F. Scott Fitzgerald published The Great Gatsby, a novel that captured the glamour, ambition, and illusions of the Jazz Age while exposing the cracks beneath its gilded surface. Over the past century, Gatsby's story has endured as a defining piece of American literature, studied, admired, and continually reinterpreted. Yet, within this celebrated novel, one character's voice has remained elusive—until now. With this centennial edition, we present The Great Gatsby alongside Libby Sternberg's Daisy, a critically acclaimed reimagining of the story from Daisy Buchanan's perspective. For decades, Daisy has been viewed through the lens of Gatsby's longing and Nick Carraway's detached observations. But who was Daisy, truly? What choices shaped her, and how did she see her own life amid the wealth and expectations of her era? By pairing these two books together, we invite readers to experience Gatsby's world in a new way—first through Fitzgerald's iconic prose and then through Daisy's own lens. We hope this edition will deepen readers' appreciation for both novels, offering a fresh perspective on agency, identity, and the weight of societal expectations—themes that resonate as powerfully today as they did in 1925. Whether you are revisiting Gatsby for the hundredth time or discovering Daisy's story for the first, we are honored to share this literary dialogue with you.
