Abstract

This paper is a study about the American writer Francis Scott Fitzgerald and his splendid and extraordinary novel “The Great Gatsby”. In this novel I will be stressing some crucial points regarding colors and symbolism inside the novel. I will analyze these topics and elaborate on them thoroughly its colors and symbolism. F.S. Fitzgerald has a prominent style, an important part of which is color symbolism, especially notable in The Great Gatsby, in every chapter of this novel. The writer is simultaneously a painter who makes his writing very visual and bright, as he mostly uses pure colors, not shades, to make the picture clear.
