Rest of the Best

Now on to the last book that was on 10 of the 11 "Best of" lists - The Great Gatsby  by F. Scott Fitzgerald.  This book was first published in 1925 and has been turned into a movie at least five times (according to IMDb), with the most recent being just this year.  Not sure if that last listing shown here was an actual movie or not - I might just check it out to find out for sure.

As can be seen from this list, the first film was released just one year after publication, showing how popular the book was when it first came out, and its popularity has not waned in the almost 90 years hence.

I have read this book before, and I am looking forward to rediscovering Fitzgerald's unique voice.
