Professor Kozlowski Lectures

Gatsby's party sucked.


Listen Later

Professor Kozlowski, introvert and buzzkill extraordinaire, poops on that most famous of lavish, extravagant parties: the one thrown by Gatsby in Chapter 3 of The Great Gatsby. A century of interpreters have mythologized this party as a symbol of doomed American innocence and romance - an innocence Hollywood and the Trump administration seem determined to re-create. Are we right to idolize the rich, raucous world of Gatsby's roaring twenties - or does the party just suck?
