They imagine him, while tilting his head back to down a bootleg cocktail, and taking note, and then writing their ceiling into his novel. &#8220;I absolutely believe that to be true,&#8221; said George. <\/p>\n<p>Fitzgerald&#8217;s novel came out a hundred years ago this month. Scholars consider it a literary masterpiece. Hollywood finds it irresistible, and so does Broadway. There&#8217;s even a recent graphic novel of &#8220;Gatsby&#8221; that brings Fitzgerald&#8217;s characters to life, starting with James Gatz, who believed he was too poor to marry the rich girl of his dreams \u2013 and so he reinvents himself. It&#8217;s less about love, and more about longing \u2013 his especially, for Daisy Buchanan just across the bay. <\/p>\n<p>They were so near, and yet worlds apart. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I hadn&#8217;t realized that either side of the bay, that they were so close to one another,&#8221; said Blake Hazard, the great-granddaughter of Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald. &#8220;I mean, you almost could look into the windows on the other side.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She says her celebrated relatives are looming lovingly large on this centennial. &#8220;I&#8217;ve gotten used to witnessing these kinds of things about my family, about my great-grandfather with other people, sharing it, and I think that feels right,&#8221; Hazard said. <\/p>\n<p>Gatsby Tours have become popular, including one run by Kevin C. Fitzpatrick, an author and New York historian.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-large\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/04\/26\/323fcdf1-2acc-4ce8-9674-d3100326d1c6\/thumbnail\/620x349\/8fdf27f6488d71ae5194ced2793a1f92\/gatsby-tour-manhasset-bay.jpg?v=fbebbf93950d87ce40fccd82890f0617#\" alt=\"gatsby-tour-manhasset-bay.jpg \" height=\"349\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/04\/26\/323fcdf1-2acc-4ce8-9674-d3100326d1c6\/thumbnail\/620x349\/8fdf27f6488d71ae5194ced2793a1f92\/gatsby-tour-manhasset-bay.jpg?v=fbebbf93950d87ce40fccd82890f0617 1x, https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/04\/26\/323fcdf1-2acc-4ce8-9674-d3100326d1c6\/thumbnail\/1240x698\/803858d3e16c44b33af7a87dee61a023\/gatsby-tour-manhasset-bay.jpg?v=fbebbf93950d87ce40fccd82890f0617 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">A Gatsby Tour of the grand houses along the shore of   Manhasset Bay.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                CBS News<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a point we&#8217;re in the middle of Manhasset Bay, and you can look to the left to West Egg and to the right to East Egg, and \u2013 it clicks,&#8221; he said, &#8220;because they can picture that green light on that dock.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Few of those mansions remain \u2013 most never survived the Great Depression, torn down to make room for the new.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p><strong>From the archives: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SQg_EGKFPvs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Death of the &#8220;Great Gatsby House&#8221; (YouTube Video)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-youtube-video embed--float-none embed--size-large embed--type-video\">\n<p>\n    <iframe class=\"embed__content lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/SQg_EGKFPvs?autoplay=0&amp;rel=1\" data-optanon-category=\"essential\" data-height=\"113\" data-width=\"200\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/iframe>\n  <\/p><figcaption>\n    <span class=\"embed__caption\"><br \/>\n      <cite><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/SQg_EGKFPvs\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">From the archives: Death of the \u201cGreat Gatsby House\u201d<\/a><\/cite> by<br \/>\n      <cite><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@CBSSundayMorning\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">CBS Sunday Morning<\/a><\/cite> on<br \/>\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">YouTube<\/a><br \/>\n    <\/span><br \/>\n  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But back in Manhattan, some of the Gatsby lore remains, especially at the Plaza Hotel and its revolving doors. &#8220;There are stories that Zelda would come in here and just go around and around and around,&#8221; Hazard said.<\/p>\n<p>It was a temple to the times, where important people did important things, including Hazard&#8217;s great-grandparents. \u00a0&#8220;They both really wanted to be in the world, of the world, writing about what they saw, chronicling it all \u2026 and having a great time doing it,&#8221; she said. <\/p>\n<p>The Fitzgeralds were not wealthy themselves. While they did enjoy money, they were amused with its perils, too.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;They were careless people, Tom and Daisy. They smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money, or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hazard said, &#8220;He was drawn to these things, but also very much an observer of them; he felt very outside of, certainly, the wealthy set.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Fitzgerald did rub elbows with the wealthy set at Princeton University. Although he later dropped out, his papers found their way back, including the only surviving handwritten manuscript of &#8220;Gatsby,&#8221; which Emma Sarconi, a rare book librarian at Princeton&#8217;s Special Collections at the Firestone Library, showed us.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Here we have half a page scribbled out.

But &#8220;Gatsby&#8221; landed with a thud, selling less than 20,000 copies. And according to Sarconi, the mixed reviews left him devastated: &#8220;He wrote a letter to his daughter, Scottie, sort of in his final years, lamenting the fact that none of her friends would know who he was,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>So, what changed? The times, perhaps. During World War II, the newly-formed Council on Books in Wartime shipped millions of pocket-sized books to keep the troops entertained overseas, including 155,000 copies of &#8220;The Great Gatsby.&#8221;\u00a0 &#8220;We wouldn&#8217;t be talking about this book today if this edition hadn&#8217;t come out,&#8221; Sarconi said. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-left embed--size-small\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/04\/26\/bf6968a0-65f2-41f7-90ff-2f243aabd55a\/thumbnail\/620x1015\/13c904f787d22c266434afdb075c4e3b\/the-great-gatsby-cover-scribner.jpg?v=fbebbf93950d87ce40fccd82890f0617#\" alt=\"the-great-gatsby-cover-scribner.jpg \" height=\"1015\" width=\"620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/04\/26\/bf6968a0-65f2-41f7-90ff-2f243aabd55a\/thumbnail\/620x1015\/13c904f787d22c266434afdb075c4e3b\/the-great-gatsby-cover-scribner.jpg?v=fbebbf93950d87ce40fccd82890f0617 1x, https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/04\/26\/bf6968a0-65f2-41f7-90ff-2f243aabd55a\/thumbnail\/1240x2030\/02864bd8b70a528666452693a0b322e2\/the-great-gatsby-cover-scribner.jpg?v=fbebbf93950d87ce40fccd82890f0617 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Scribner<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Fitzgerald had died long before that, at the age of 44.

For many, &#8220;The Great Gatsby&#8221; is indeed the Great American Novel.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It sounds silly, but I wish Scott could be here, I just think he&#8217;d be so thrilled,&#8221; said Hazard, &#8220;and surprised.
