Summary
Nick Carraway has wasted his life. After graduating from Yale and spending one pointless summer in New York—a time that only showed him how pathetic the lives of the wealthy really were—he returned home to St. Paul only for his father to tell him to go do something on his own. Opening a branch of the family hardware company in Duluth was not an option after the economic crash, so now he's working as a carpenter and wasting that expensive education and the rest of his life, poor and miserable with only his roommates, Jordan and Chester, to brighten his days.
Jay Gatsby has spent almost half his life with a man over twice his age. Essentially trapped on a yacht with an abusive alcoholic who promised him a lifetime of luxury when he was 17, all that good nature and ambition within him has been worn down to nothing but a snobbish shell of the young man he once was. A mistake he made five years ago put a rift between himself and Dan and now he spends his days trying to distract himself from the fact that he's trapped in the very life he spent his whole childhood chasing.
When he ends up getting fished out of the Duluth harbor with no memory, Nick's the only one who recognizes him. It's up to him what happens next.

Summary
NEW HAVEN, 1987
Nick Carraway is 19 years old, and he's already crashing and burning. His dad no longer trusts him after something he did wrong over the summer. To earn his trust back, he has to do well in school, work a shitty diner job, and not get into any more trouble. That becomes an issue when trouble walks in the diner door. Trouble in the form of 21-year-old Jay Gatsby, led along by abusive millionaire Dan Cody, who he swears is going to make him famous. How? Good question with a bad answer.
Nick has to interview someone, anyone, for a massive grade this semester, and he can think of no one more provocative than this mysterious young man split so cleanly between desperation and dedication. Only he's not really prepared for the seedy underbelly of the world Jay Gatsby—if that's even his real name—is about to show him. Nor is he prepared to face all the awful parts of himself that Jay is all too willing to drag into the light.
Who's the user here? Who's being used? Nick's determined to find out more each time he returns to the Tuolomee, no matter how much Jay's life scares him. All Jay has to do to get what he wants is urge him:
"Don't be afraid. Just start the tape." -

Summary
Nick Carraway and Jay Gatsby have been together for over a year now and in spite of all the time they get to spend together in Jay's impossibly large mansion, they're still not really out to the public. This is because the public is ravenous for just about any detail they can get concerning the life of one of the few sexually ambiguous billionaires in America. The government would be too if they didn't know any better.
So Jay proposes he could take a day off. It's fall. It's a beautiful day. They've been cooped up for too long. Wouldn't it be nice to go to a pumpkin patch and pretend to be one of the thousands of couples that think fall is THEIR thing and NO ONE ELSE'S?
Like teenagers after curfew, they sneak out of the house to spend a day together. Only Jay hopes it's the beginning of the rest of their lives.Series

Summary
It was a universally agreed upon truth in the summer of 1923 that when it came to good gossip, Gatsby’s parties were the place to go. What set them apart from any other soirée were the secrets that traveled in whispered across crowded dance floors and brightly lit lawns. After all, chances were that any questions about the latest scandal could no doubt be answered by one of the partygoers. But as the summer beat on, June spilling into July, one topic began to stand out among the rest as something the gossipers simply could not crack, and that was the mystery of Nick Carraway. Nobody seemed to know who he was, but everyone agreed that he was Gatsby's.
