The Great Gatsby

Bleh. Why does everyone get all excited about Gatsby? It was average at best. Not sure why this is deemed a classic even. Maybe I harbor a grudge b/c of the whole Zelda thing (F. Scott stealing her journal, etc.).

Gatsby a self-made man, in love with Daisy, who's married to Tom. Tom having an affair with Wilson's wife, who is killed by Daisy in yellow car on way back from the city. Wilson kills Gatsby, then self. Nick, Daisy's cousin, the narrator for the story. Lives next door to Gatsby in West Egg.
