Reply to comment by wjbc in The Great Gatsby: I don't know why this book is so popular with English teachers by knerled
Like I said, almost a century. Closer to 100 than 50, to be sure.
And be careful drawing broad strokes about critics - it wasn’t a commercial success, but a number of critics and colleague praised it quite highly. It wasn’t universally panned.
