The Great Gatsby oleh F. Scott Fitzgerald.
If anda saw the movie, believe me anda need to read it for a real experience.

If anda haven't read it, make sure anda do before your time comes. If anda have, then anda know why I think it's the single greatest novel I've ever read. The symbolism and the colorful keterangan Fitzgerald employs are like the writings of God..no joke.

For example:
"The wind had blown off, leaving a loud, bright night, with wings beating in the trees and a persistent organ sound as the full bellows of the earth blew the frogs full of life." (pg 20)

"The lights grow brighter as the earth lurches away from the sun, and now the orchestra is playing yellow koktil, koktail music, and the opera of voices pitches a key higher. Laughter is easier menit oleh minute, spilled with prodigality, tipped out at a cheerful word. The groups change lebih swiftly, swell with new arrivals, dissolve and form in the same breath; already there were wanderers, confident girls who weave here and there among the stouter and lebih stable, become for a sharp, joyous moment the center of a group, and then, excited with triumph, glide on through the sea-change of faces and voices and color under the constantly changing light. (pg. 21)

That's just the small taste, anda guys really got to read this. And if you're a raging romantic like me, this is definitely a novel for you. It's an oddly tragic spin on a lifestyle that seems to be anything but tragic, beautifully written and always good every time anda read it.

If anda don't like really frothy romantic stuff, though, anda can still enjoy the excellent menulis and the interesting plot dynamic. :)

Btw, I suffer from a raging crush on Carey Mulligan after seeing the film XD....

;) Read it!
