《了不起的盖茨比》是他(菲茨杰拉德)最好的小说,该书敏锐地抓住了当代社会生活的主题,并以象征手法展现了“美国梦”传奇之下的嘲讽及悲怅。
——《牛津美国文学词典》
《了不起的盖茨比》是自亨利·詹姆斯以来美国小说迈出的第一步,因为菲茨杰拉德在其中描写了宏大、熙攘、轻率和寻欢,凡此种种,曾风靡一时。
——T.S.艾略特
对18岁那年的我来说,最欣赏的书是阿珀达依库的《半人马座α星》。但在反复阅读的时间里,它逐渐失去最初的光彩,而把至高无上的地位让给了菲茨杰拉德的《了不起的盖茨比》。而且《了不起的盖茨比》对我始终是绝好的作品。兴之所至,我便习惯性地从书架中抽出《了不起的盖茨比》,信手翻开一页,读上一段,一次都没让我失望过,没有一页使人兴味索然。何等妙不可言的杰作!我真想把其中的妙处告诉别人。但环视四周,竟无一个人读过《了不起的盖茨比》,甚至连想读的人都没有!在1968年,阅读菲茨杰拉德的作品,虽然算不得反动之举,也终非值得提倡的行为。
——村上春树《挪威的森林》
20世纪流传最广、最为人钦佩的美国小说。
——克罗蒂亚·皮埃罗庞:《纽约人》
我们终于拥有了一部美国杰作:粗糙的水晶被磨成真正的钻石。
——詹姆斯·迪克
篇章安排精巧至极,没人能想出比这更好的构思了。
——H.L.门肯
当菲茨杰拉德处于他创作颠峰之际,他把对社会百态的了解化为了文字(他既是社会的批判者,也是社会的牺牲品),至少成就了一部作品:《了不起的盖茨比》。
——E.L.多克特罗:《民族》
一本奇特的书。神秘而光辉闪耀的故事。他写得很美——他风格如此,因为他落笔自然,对形式的把握臻于极至。
——艾德文·克拉克:《纽约时报书评》
“既然他能够写出一本像《了不起的盖茨比》这样的好书,我相信他一定能写出更好的书。”
——海明威

1. 每当你觉得想要批评什么人的时候,你切要记着,这个世界上的人并非都具备你禀有的条件。
Whenever you feel like criticizing any one, just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.
所有的光鲜亮丽都敌不过时间,并且一去不复返。
A sense of the fundamental decencies is parceled out unequally at birth.
世界上只有被追求者和追求者,忙碌者和疲惫者。
Conduct may be founded on the hard rock or the wet marshes, but after a certain point I don’t care what it’s founded on.
每个人都认为他自己至少具有一种主要的美德,我的美德是:我是我所结识过的少有的几个诚实人中间的一个。
Yet high over the city our line of yellow windows must have contributed their share of human secrecy to the casual watcher in the darkening streets, and I was him too, looking up and wondering. I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life.
Everyone suspects himself of at least one of the cardinal virtues and this.
于是我们奋力向前划,逆流向上的小舟,不停地倒退,进入过去。
There are only the pursued, the pursuing, the busy and the tired.
He had thrown himself into it with a creative passion, adding to it all the time, decking it out with every bright feather that drifted his way. No amount of fire or freshness can challenge what a man will store up in his ghostly heart.
He was a son of God—a phrase which, if it means anything, means just that—and he must be about His Father’s business, the service of a vast, vulgar, and meretricious beauty.
So engrossed was she that she had no consciousness of being observed, and one emotion after another crept into her face like objects into a slowly developing picture.
I couldn’t sleep all night; a fog-horn was groaning incessantly on the Sound, and I tossed half-sick between grotesque reality and savage, frightening dreams.
She vanished into her rich house, into her rich, full life, leaving Gatsby—nothing.
Gatsby was overwhelmingly aware of the youth and mystery that wealth imprisons and preserves, of the freshness of many clothes, and of Daisy, gleaming like silver, safe and proud above the hot struggles of the poor.
What could you make of that, except to suspect some intensity in his conception of the affair that couldn’t be measured?
If that was true he must have felt that he had lost the old warm world, paid a high price for living too long with a single dream. He must have looked up at an unfamiliar sky through frightening leaves and shivered as he found what a grotesque thing a rose is and how raw the sunlight was upon the scarcely created grass. A new world, material without being real, where poor ghosts, breathing dreams like air, drifted fortuitously about . . .
I’m thirty. I’m five years too old to lie to myself and call it honor.etic contemplation he neither understood nor desired, face to face for the last time in history with something commensurate to his capacity for wonder.
He had come a long way to this blue lawn, and his dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it. He did not know that it was already behind him, somewhere back in that vast obscurity beyond the city, where the dark fields of the republic rolled on under the night.
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
It eluded us then,but that's no matter to-morrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther...and one fine morning. So we beat on,boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly nto the past.
