The map in this book moves between the great classic of the Golden Jazz Age and the modern day retelling here. “Everyone knows Gatsby. New money. Murky past. Huge online following.” goes the tagline and this tells you everything you need to know – so come on and join the party!

“This hot summer story gender flips and reimagines F Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel”…..

The book:

Nic Carraway doesn’t belong amongst the super-rich, but when she scores a cheap summer lease in Long Island, it-girl Jay Gatsby becomes her neighbour.

Gatsby welcomes Nic to her opulent parties attended by the world’s A-list. And in return, Nic helps Gatsby reconnect with an old flame: Nic’s cousin, the ever-charming but now-married Danny Buchanan.

But no one can be careless like the rich. As the summer heats up, Nic finds herself tangled in a web of longing and ambition, betrayal and deceit. In a world where everyone is lying – about and to themselves – can Nic finally tell the truth?

Why a map is key:

You know those maps that you can buy of celebrity homes in and around LA and New York? Well, this calls for such a map as the houses here are the homes of the rich and famous of Gatsby. Not just that, the parties they hold – this is their playground for all kinds of drama and happenings. What could happen? Well, anything, that’s the whole point. It’s the type of party that you go into not knowing what is going to go down and what is going to happen afterwards.
