The Great Gatsby: Chapter 4-6

from Close Reads Podcast HQ Hosted by David Kern, Heidi White, and Sean Johnson

Welcome back to our series on F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, in which we discuss his best novelistic skills, including his ability to deal in subtext while also creating mood. Plus: the way the book explores the dissonance between desire and reality, whether any of these characters have any interest in (or capacity to see) higher things, and much more. Happy listening!
