I'm also with Xfear, The Great Gatsby is probably one of the best books from Fitzgerald's era. and that era was full of great books.

Playing: Sims 3, Fallout 3

Yeah Gatsby gets a lot of backlash these days from so-called hipsters. It's one of those books that's become cool to hate, when in fact it truly is as good as it's billed. Everyone told me it was awful when I first read it when I was about 14, and they were all wrong.

The Lost Generation of the 20's is arguably the greatest period for American fiction ever, I'm a huge Fitzgerald and Hemingway fan. Ezra Pound is great as well. Aside from the beatnik literature movement of the late 50's early 60's, the Lost Generation is tops in my book.

How's AA3, xfear?

It's got a pretty substantial amount of bugs in it so far. Granted I've only played it for a total of maybe 3 or 4 hours so far. The designs are fantastic though. It does kind of suck that they replaced the old Russian weapons system with generic names now though.

Still, once they get some bugs worked out, it'll be great.

Dude. I remember reading Great Gatsby in 11th grade, and everyone hating it. I still can't understand why. Then again, everyone hated Shakespeare also.

I'll never understand why people in my grade uniformly hated Gatsby, but had orgasms over The Scarlet Letter. Ugh. It was good, but not better than say Gatsby or Old Man and the Sea.
