Reply to comment by peccavi26 in The Great Gatsby: I don't know why this book is so popular with English teachers by knerled

Speaking of the unreliable narrator - I find this article fascinating.

I personally abhor when activists try to retroactively find social commentary in works the author never intended, but this article makes a fairly persuasive argument that Fitzgerald did intend it. I mean, Fitzgerald wrote each word, he included it in the book, it has to mean SOMETHING.
