A striking literary experiment swapping all gendered words in The Great Gatsby.
What if every gendered word in The Great Gatsby were inverted—while every other word remained the same?
Welcome to a matriarchal Jazz Age, where the newly-rich Ms. Gatsbee throws lavish parties in the hopes of reuniting with her lost love, David, who is now married to the boorish Thelma Buchanan.
Using a painstaking, word-by-word transformation, this edition preserves F. Scott Fitzgerald’s original text while inverting its gendered language.
Gender-Swapped Great Gatsby invites you to experience an American classic through an unsettling new lens.
