The Great Gatsby‚ F. Scott Fitzgerald I have not read other fiction by this author‚ but after my experience with this novel I plan to read more of his work as a result of his ability to poetically describe the extravagant scenes within The Great Gatsby and the sheer romance of Jay Gatsby dedicating his life to reuniting with his lost lover‚ Daisy‚ during one of his wild parties.

Jessica Joy T.S. Eliot’s “The Waste Land” Final Paper Eliot imparts to us the Grail quest’s influence on “The Waste Land” in the notes: “Not only the title‚ but the plan and a good deal of the incidental symbolism of the poem were suggested by Miss Jessie L.
