Pursuit for dream

  I have heard of the famous novel The Great Gatsby for many years.However ,until recently have I got the time and mood to read it.As soon as I finish reading.I find my previous unwarranted assumption of it totally wrong.

  This is a story about Gatsby and his pursuit for the "American dream",During the World War One, the poor soldier Gatsby fell in love with an upper class girl named Daisy.But due to the wide gap between them,Daisy decided to Marry to a man of her class,instead of Gatsby.Broken he arted Gatsby then held the conviction that money was of the greatest importance.He strongly believed in the "American dream",which as we all know,advocates that one can achieve whatever he or she like through continous efforts.He strived for five years to become a millionaire and bought a villa near Daisy to attract her. He was too addicted to his fantasy to realize that Daisy was no longer the lovely girl she used to be.Eventually,he was killed because of her crime.
