Trimalchio vs The Great Gatsby

[Eric Herbst]

I came across this article this morning while reading the WSJ. The article makes the argument that the Gatsby that will be portrayed in the movie to be released in May will resemble the Gatsby described in Trimalchio as opposed to The Great Gatsby.

Here is the link to the article. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001...

I hope this will lead to an interesting discussion.

The only problem I have is that you must be a WSJ subscriber to read the above article; too bad.
I found this one which I feel is another we should check out:
