Meet Team HemingwayWhy Jay Gatsby lands here
Gatsby is Epicurean on the surface and to the bone, a connoisseur of pleasure who built a palace of parties, beauty, and sensation in pursuit of one feeling he could not let go of.
He is Empiricist in his self-made discipline, learning the world by living it and remaking himself through direct effort. And he is Sisyphean, refining and perfecting a single vision of a single moment, repeating the dream up the same hill night after night.
For all the crowds, he is achingly Solitary, alone at his own parties, watching one green light by himself. Sensory, self-examining, withdrawn, reflective. That is Team Hemingway, the Realists.
