One hundred years ago, F. Scott Fitzgerald published The Great Gatsby , a novel that captured the glamour, ambition, and illusions of the Jazz Age while exposing the cracks beneath its gilded surface. Over the past century, Gatsby's story has endured as a defining piece of American literature, studied, admired, and continually reinterpreted. Yet, within this celebrated novel, one character's voice has remained elusive―until now. With this centennial edition, we present The Great Gatsby alongside Libby Sternberg's Daisy , a critically acclaimed reimagining of the story from Daisy Buchanan's perspective. For decades, Daisy has been viewed through the lens of Gatsby's longing and Nick Carraway's detached observations. But who was Daisy, truly? What choices shaped her, and how did she see her own life amid the wealth and expectations of her era? By pairing these two books together, we invite readers to experience Gatsby's world in a new way―first through Fitzgerald's iconic prose and then through Daisy's own lens. We hope this edition will deepen readers' appreciation for both novels, offering a fresh perspective on agency, identity, and the weight of societal expectations―themes that resonate as powerfully today as they did in 1925. Whether you are revisiting Gatsby for the hundredth time or discovering Daisy's story for the first, we are honored to share this literary dialogue with you. “A bold, richly imagined retelling that brings Daisy Buchanan into sharp focus. A fresh, nuanced portrait of a woman trapped by the times.” -- Leslie Goetsch, Professor of English, George Mason University, and author of the celebrated novel Back Creek “A masterful literary achievement. Sternberg has the insight and audacity to alter and clarify key elements of Fitzgerald’s novel. The result is the revitalization of an iconic American tale.” -- John C. Hampsey, Professor of British Romanticism, Cal Poly, and author of the acclaimed Kaufman’s Hill “If you loved The Great Gatsby , you’ll definitely want to see how Sternberg reimagines Daisy Buchanan.” -- Ed Morrissey, The Ed Morrissey Podcast “A bright and entertaining book… Daisy is delicate but resolved, deeply loving yet wary of where life is taking her.” -- Jody Crocker, Retired Librarian “A delicious story, ambitious in scope and absorbing.” -- Norm Goldman, BookPleasures.com Libby Sternberg is an award-winning novelist and literary scholar whose work reimagines classic stories with depth and originality. An Edgar finalist and twice a BookLife quarter-finalist, Sternberg has crafted a distinguished career in historical and literary fiction. Her novel Daisy, a feminist retelling of The Great Gatsby, has been hailed as “original and charming” (Booklist) and “stunning and beautifully crafted” (Reedsy Discovery). Recognized as an authority on Fitzgerald’s work, Sternberg has immersed herself in his writings, from Trimalchio to The Crack-Up, producing thoughtful analyses and inventive interpretations. Her previous retelling, Sloane Hall, was one of only 14 books highlighted by HuffPost on the 200th anniversary of Jane Eyre. With a keen eye for historical nuance and a gift for narrative reinvention, Sternberg’s work bridges the past and present, giving voice to characters too often overlooked. She lives in Lancaster, PA, with her husband, Matthew.
