bought more tobacco for you and me. teehee.
i finished reading the great gatsby (fitzgerald) a few days ago. the prominent themes in the novel had to do with the glittering yet bleak era of the jazz age, the hollow emptiness of the american dream and behind those scenes, the rise and fall of the ambitious gatsby. the characters may have lacked depth (at least in my opinion); but what fitzgerald saw during those seemingly prosperous times was atmospherically perceptive. i take my hat off to his brilliance.
