Dawggg I have a whole Gatsby project due tomorrow and I haven’t even read a page of the book yet 😭😭😭😭 pray for me y’all this is worth my whole grade Edit 3/1/2023: dw y’all I finished🔥🔥 I scored an A and passed. thank you guys for the support to this day LOL Edit 6/21/23: it’s so funny seeing people still replying to this comment..

the audiobooks are reliable sources to go to, they embody the characters into such vivid, almost movie like voice interpretations. The only thing critiquing the fact of audiobooks themselves is that in most cases, the auditor reading will interpret a certain line wrong or different from how you would interpret a characters line. for instance, when Daisy mentions Gatsby and the "Gatsby, what gatsby?" line appears, some would interepret the line as if Daisy never knew of Gatsby and some would interpret the line as if she did know him; the 2013 Great Gatsby film gives way for that.
This was a close friend of mine’s favorite book, he passed away in a very tragic way a few years ago. I bought the book to read it in his honor, but I struggled too much because I am dyslexic and the style of writing is very hard to read. Now I can finally honor him and I get to enjoy this story. Thank you for this audiobook. Rest in peace, Patrick.
He had great taste, one of the best books ive ever read, i hope you enjoyed it creating another great memory to associate with your good friend I offer my sincere condolences may he rest in peace and may you find peace in your life too
I absolutely adore the voice and i am so grateful for this audiobook, but that editing where the voice fades away and is overlapped at the end of an occasional paragraph is absolutely driving me insane. i can feel my brain slipping away every time it happens. 😭
IMO i feel like nick isnt attracted to gatsby and is more glamourizing him because of what he represents. I see it in a way of two friends acknowledging both parties negatives and positives.
@@SamuelSamuelSamuel1 you obviously never had a bromance. One can be very close and fond of someone without a sexual tension... in fact it is no longer common which is why so many people assume they are gay.
There is something really comforting having you guys all here in the comments. It’s literally 4:11 where and I am, and it makes me feels like we’re all in it (reading this book) together. 😊
This man's voice is so good! Been trying to find time to read this, as its next on my long list. But I do not have time. So, today while I clean and work out, Gatsby it is!
Poor Frank Muller :( he had a terrible motorcycle accident that rendered him hospital ridden and unable to continue his art … he read the dark tower series .. later dying from his medial conditions

This is to my English teacher Mrs. Trammel, who retired this year 2021 she did it to spend more time with her infant grandson and become a better grandma. She was a great teacher and I know she will make a good grandma to her grandson ❤️
I’m 2 hours 25 minutes in and I’m enjoying it so far. Since I had watched the movie it gives me an idea of what everything and everyone looks like in the novel. My advice is to watch the movie before reading if you have a test or exam because you’ll understand it better
All i have to say is Tom And Daisy truly deserved each other. The twin sickening souls that didnt deserve to know Gatsby. 10/10 book im so glad i listened to this on my own volition. The end was very bittersweet but beautifully written none the less. If this comment finds you i recommend you listen to this at a slower pace and meditate on the writing to digest its true meaning and when you finish it i can assure that you will appreciate this literary classic.
To be fair, Gatsby was also a total shitbird for trying to break up a marriage like that. He chased a mediocre woman with a mediocre man and thought he had the right to destroy their marriage by making himself into a man Daisy would fall in love with. Had she said yes, the next man to come along and seduce her would be entirely within his rights to do so. Furthermore, he seemed to acquire his wealth through criminal enterprise and in spite of being a desirable bachelor of both wealth and means, he still retained the obsessive goal of trying to get this one specific woman whom he kept pining for in spite of her already living in a perfectly adequate wedlock.
@@strongback6550 To be fair Tom was cheating on Daisy so their marriage wasnt adequate to begin with eventually destructive tendencies have destructive consequences. And Gatsby was haunted by a love that abruptly ended so in order to make up for lost time he decided the only way to gain Daisy's attention was to uphold this facade of wealth. And its also a very good narrative on culture that still holds up to this day. It is very difficult to become wealthy without the use of ill gotten gains. So in Gatsby's grand plan to get Daisy back he needed to become wealthy and fast even if it was immoral. I dont believe that anything Gatsby did in the book was ever enough to constitute his fate. Tom and Daisy both knew who was driving the vehicle when it struck Tom' s mistress and their silence when it mattered most was more than enough to condemn their characters. I also believe Gatsby was a good man beneath all the lying he was just a disillusioned man haunted by a love he could never have.
Had to do a Gatsby essay couple weeks ago without reading even one page before that moment and once I had to start reading the book it already captivated me. It’s a stretch to call this underrated since it is so critically acclaimed but so many high schoolers go through school ignoring the beauty of this book that’s in plain sight.
I’m interested in what you were captivated by, genuinely curious as I don’t feel this way. To me it’s a lot of small talk with some imagery that never opens up, dialogue with no world-building. Again I’m not trying to disagree because I want to like the book but I’m just not atm.
@@mesayzhi7258I like how its subtle in its condemnation of their lifestyles. The characters are so un-relatable , intentionally, and it captivates me how Fitzgerald does this so well
In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since. “Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.” He didn’t say any more, but we’ve always been unusually communicative in a reserved way, and I understood that he meant a great deal more than that. In consequence, I’m inclined to reserve all judgments, a habit that has opened up many curious natures to me and also made me the victim of not a few veteran bores
Fitzgerald’s party scene was, in my opinion, the best writing of that century and perhaps this one too. He eclipsed Hemingway in every category. It had the quality all great art has, the illusion of having always existed.
That was a truly fine reading. I understood, actually felt more deeply, the emotions and the dimension of the characters than I have when I’ve read Fitzgerald’s book myself.
2:45:49 is beginning of my favorite quote. Watch for about 30 seconds though, right after it cuts off is my actual favorite line, about how he talked a lot about the past, like he was trying to get back a part of himself that had gone into loving Daisy. I'm currently in a very similar situation, minus the extravagence. My girlfriend broke up with me last Summer and every part of me wants to go back to her, but I know it's not the same. I just miss that relationship and that part of myself, which is something I couldn't get back even if we dated again. The problem is knowing doesn't make me miss her any less
I feel ya man, an ex is an ex for a reason, just Remeber to have fun while playing the dating game, if all else fails at least at the end of the day you had fun, and don't change for anyone.

@@ecstaccy5464 The one starring Leonardo DiCaprio? If so, please tell me how different the movie is from the book. I have almost no time to read it... Due date is tomorrow lol
Anyone in highschool English, really do just try to give this book some time. This book is nearing on 100 years old but I swear that it's at least worth your attention. You're better off failing the quiz and truly getting the book then you are to pass it and have not learned anything.
Everything that you touch Book, friends family job …get the picture.? The world is a banquet most poor suckers are starving to death. Love this quote It should be in every family and classroom. I wish we could tally the reactions
@@SamuelSamuelSamuel1 17/20 on multiple choice and 10/10 on written response. This teacher is killer she uses such small grades that every point majorly impacts the grade 🙃
For anybody writing a paper about this book just bs some stuff about either the transformation and /or decadence of the American Dream, the subjectivity of time as it's experienced by different people, or analyze the role of women in the text from a Marxist (e.x. division of labor) lens.
Born into a middle-class family in Saint Paul, Minnesota, Fitzgerald was raised primarily in New York state. He attended Princeton University, where he befriended future literary critic Edmund Wilson. Owing to a failed romantic relationship with Chicago socialite Ginevra King, he dropped out in 1917 to join the United States Army during World War I. While stationed in Alabama, he met Zelda Sayre, a Southern debutante who belonged to Montgomery's exclusive country-club set. Although she initially rejected Fitzgerald's marriage proposal due to his lack of financial prospects, Zelda agreed to marry him after he published the commercially successful This Side of Paradise (1920). The novel became a cultural sensation and cemented his reputation as one of the eminent writers of the decade.
Today, in Montgomery, AL they've made a museum out of a house Zelda lived in while Scott worked in Hollywood. They have a lot of her art displayed. She was a wonderful modern artist. It's worth a visit .
I see now why people hate this book. I'm only two minutes in and it has thrown huge words at me that I know I understand but not fast enough for the required pacing.
The best part of the book: "I want you and Daisy to "come" over to my house," he said. "I'd like to show her around." "You're sure you want me to "come"?" "Absolutely, old sport." Daisy went upstairs to wash her face--too late I thought with humiliation of my towels--while Gatsby and I waited on the lawn. 😂 Priceless! 😂
I'm usually a really good reader I read Gone with the wind, Jane Eyre, grapes of wrath, the architecture of belief and understood them very well, but for some damn reason I can't read this book at all, like my comprehension disappears. So here I am, and surprisingly I understand it.
Thank you for this. I’m a senior in high school and have a month left and I have to read this for English. If it weren’t for this audio book I would never of finished reading. Thank you a million 🙏

Goat, saved me for my Socratic seminar🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
R.I.P. Frank miller .. the greatest audiobook reader
Bro this book is my summer homework and school starts tomorrow. Thank god for x1.5 speed.
im gonna listen to this on a loop while i sleep to make the book go into my head
Very happy I found this. It’s thanksgiving break and I was supposed to read this before Monday(it’s Friday) I tried reading it myself but kept getting lost. Hearing it like this is so much better and makes a lot more sense. Good luck to the future English students though!😭

Finished the audiobook goodbye fellow English students
I know people told me that this book starts boring but it gets better… BUT THIS BOOK GETS SO MUCH BETTER!
being asexual isnt a real sexuality
@Trolledfrog 678 being stupid isn’t a real excuse for being a dick
Anyone in highschool English, really do just try to give this book some time. This book is nearing on 100 years old but I swear that it's at least worth your attention. You're better off failing the quiz and truly getting the book then you are to pass it and have not learned anything.
Amen!
Not an English student, just got cast in a stage adaptation!
Everything that you touch Book, friends family job …get the picture.? The world is a banquet most poor suckers are starving to death. Love this quote It should be in every family and classroom. I wish we could tally the reactions
My post No it is not
Literature . It might
anyone else struggle to find this video by this narrator?
Right? I swear it was a lot easier to find this a couple weeks ago
@@SquidoMarine Yeah I was using this version of the audiobook, but I can’t find that same video anymore
It got taken down and re uploaded
So this means I can really read a book in four hours?
Put it on 2x speed and you can read it in around 2
Starting at about 4:31 are some of the most beautiful words ever written about America.
Everyone’s comments are recent because everyone in English 2 is reading this book lol
Sadly not every school
Yep we started it in advanced English like last week
English 3 honers actually
@@carolinelawrence6636 sameee

How did you do?
@@SamuelSamuelSamuel1 17/20 on multiple choice and 10/10 on written response. This teacher is killer she uses such small grades that every point majorly impacts the grade 🙃

This book was actually awesome... I was forced to read it for literature class but in the end I really enjoyed it!
I finished this book in 5 hours in a night because I had a test on it the next day. This thing legit saved me
Anybody else just listen to this when they can’t fall asleep?
Yup
It's my go to lol
Kinda sucks tho cus I actually need to read it and I keep falling asleep lmao
Yup lol
For anybody writing a paper about this book just bs some stuff about either the transformation and /or decadence of the American Dream, the subjectivity of time as it's experienced by different people, or analyze the role of women in the text from a Marxist (e.x. division of labor) lens.
1.25x is great when your starting the book a month later.
1:14:28
Absolutely perfect book and perfect recording of it.
I have to read this book by tonight for my 11th grade trial, wish me luck.
greetings fellow AP Lang students
am i the only high schooler here reading this just for fun? possibly lol. good luck to all the students who have to write reports and stuff on it!!
My son did this when he went to school he told me about the book and I like it
I'm surprised you hadn't read it in high school. It had been in the curriculum for a long time. I read it first in HS and I graduated in 1998.
Thanks for doing my English homework.

This is to my seventh grade teacher Miss Nicastro I’m finally reading this book
I had that teacher
The finest novel of the 20th century.
I can't be the only one reading this for fun, can I?
Yes
Me too!!
W
i got a test for this
No
finally an audiobook that isn’t read too slow
I’m just starting reading this for my English class
Dude my final is 70 questions on this damn book pray for me y'all 😔🥲
Good luck
A new modern interpretation of Great Gatsby would be cool.
Gatsby entered public domain in January so I'm assuming there are multiple versions of that in the works! (quality may vary)
@@GTA5Player1 seriously?! I might dabble
Probably not. It was a short, rapidly paced book in its day. Today, it would be a short-story. On TV, it would be equal to one episode of FRIENDS.

Am I the only one who isn't here because of an English class but just reading for pleasure?
I am 😎✌️. Best book ever
Some advice, put this on 1.25x speed
Born into a middle-class family in Saint Paul, Minnesota, Fitzgerald was raised primarily in New York state.
He attended Princeton University, where he befriended future literary critic Edmund Wilson.
Owing to a failed romantic relationship with Chicago socialite Ginevra King, he dropped out in 1917 to join the United States Army during World War I.
While stationed in Alabama, he met Zelda Sayre, a Southern debutante who belonged to Montgomery's exclusive country-club set.
Although she initially rejected Fitzgerald's marriage proposal due to his lack of financial prospects, Zelda agreed to marry him after he published the commercially successful This Side of Paradise (1920).
The novel became a cultural sensation and cemented his reputation as one of the eminent writers of the decade.
Today, in Montgomery, AL they've made a museum out of a house Zelda lived in while Scott worked in Hollywood. They have a lot of her art displayed. She was a wonderful modern artist. It's worth a visit .
Zelda and Fitzgerald were super crazy and definitely not meant to be lovers, but zelda was an awesome artist and fitz a great writer. 🤘

Is anyone else here from AP Lang?
I'm here before this pops up on my required reading list so I don't panic when I have to read it
I see now why people hate this book. I'm only two minutes in and it has thrown huge words at me that I know I understand but not fast enough for the required pacing.
The best part of the book:
"I want you and Daisy to "come" over to my house," he said. "I'd like to show her around."
"You're sure you want me to "come"?"
"Absolutely, old sport."
Daisy went upstairs to wash her face--too late I thought with humiliation of my towels--while Gatsby and I waited on the lawn.
😂 Priceless! 😂
i like this book but i’ve been having trouble reading recently so this is helpful
Is Gravity Falls back? 🌸
HELP IM THINKING 5GE SAME
And so we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past…
I'm usually a really good reader I read Gone with the wind, Jane Eyre, grapes of wrath, the architecture of belief and understood them very well, but for some damn reason I can't read this book at all, like my comprehension disappears. So here I am, and surprisingly I understand it.
Thank you for this. I’m a senior in high school and have a month left and I have to read this for English. If it weren’t for this audio book I would never of finished reading. Thank you a million 🙏
Got a ton of work on this book to do and haven't even opened the thing
