Here for the first time a reader can understand The Great Gatsby as
F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote it. Fitzgerald wanted praise for showing
skills like those of James Joyce in Ulysses. He set the table for a
party to which no one came. No reviewers or interpreters of his
novel until now have fully explained its structure, its individual
chapter topics, biblical parodies, puns, games with numbers, and
burlesques hidden in images. He drew from The Gospel According to
John, a 5th century apocryphal book (The Gospel of Nicodemus), The
Epistle of James, The Acts of the Apostles, and legends of the
saints in ways similar to Joyce's use of adventures in Homer's The
Odyssey.
