why don't we talk about this?

I know it's required reading in most high schools but for some reason I never had to read it. I did enjoy Tender is the Night though.

What's left to say?

Because it's one of the few masterworks that most people have actually read, so there's no way that we can feel intellectually superior when we discuss it.

The sad thing is that it's one of the only works of literature that's easy enough to understand that the non-Lit major students here could probably actually have a decent discourse based on it.

cause this isn't high school.

Still the greatest cover art in the history of literature desu.

The Great Gatsby is an introduction to reading actual books.

its a highschoolers book

Because we have all discussed it to no end in high school and college

Don't get me wrong, it's probably my favorite book, but damn I've had to talk about it waaaaaay too much
