The Great Gatsby party is still raging on the West End

Bleu’s Carraway is of course the narrator of this tale, the wannabe New York bond dealer who moves into a cottage on Long Island next door to the mansion of Jay Gatsby, a flash but mysterious figure who throws wild parties – possibly funded by gangster dealings in this era of Prohibition. They’re on the new money side of the sound in West Egg, but across the water is East Egg, where Daisy Buchanan, Carraway’s cousin, lives with her husband Tom. Gatsby used to court Daisy before the war, and all the parties he throws are for her… and well, the rest is all intrigue, hilarity, romance, lust and tragedy.
