Why? Shakespeare, old movies & F. Scott, personal favorites all. Yes, I'm an English Lit major who favored 20th century American Lit as well. <br /><br />I've read "Gatsby" so many times and each new reading brings new insight. Amazing book. I've read many bios on he & Zelda. I prefer the Nancy Milford bio of Zelda which I read in college.
