To me, the book is a classic as it portrays the beginning of the change in culture and society during the 1920s. You have the lavish and extravagance and the luxury on one hand. And on the other, you have the life of the masses which have to toil through life to make ends meet. The book portrays the two extreme ends of the spectrum of society. I was going through Shmoop and picked up this quote from the Gatsby that I love: “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.’ Wow! Words that keep you grounded! “The Great Gatsby” has been both condemned as a worthless book, as well as praised as a classic.
