Note: This guide is intended to be a spoiler-free read-along companion to The Great Gatsby. However, if you click on an annotation of a character/symbol that hasn't yet been introduced to you, it's possible that it will spoil small parts of the novel. We also recommend waiting until you finish the novel to read the Theme annotations.
