100 Years of Gatsby @Blasco
Advertisement
The Great Gatsby turns 100 this year. But do you know about its Erie connection?
Do you know that Daisy and Gatsby were based on real-life people? Considered the Great American Novel does Fitzgerald's book about not being able to relive your past and how greed and money corrupt absolutely still resonate today? Or has it gone the way of the flappers and parties in revels in?
Join librarian Rachel Stevenson in a lively discussion about Gatsby, the 1920s, and the Erieite who brought Fitzgerald back into the eye much like T. J. Eckleberg.
Registration is not required.
