On January 1st 2021, the text for The Great Gatsby entered the public domain and it has been freely adapted for the first time with this illustrated edition published by Black Dog & Leventhal, an imprint of Hachette
Adam Simpson was commissioned to create eight internal artworks and a series of spots to sit amongst the text as well as the design for the cover and slip case
Internal double page spread ‘Gatsby’s mansion’
“And inside, as we wandered through Marie Antoinette music-rooms and Restoration Salons, I felt that there were guests concealed behind every couch and table, under orders to be breathlessly silent until we had passed through.”
