The main events of the novel take place in the summer of 1922. Nick Carraway, a Yale graduate and World War I veteran from the Midwest â who serves as the novel's narrator â takes a job in New York as a bond salesman.
Many of these events from Fitzgeraldâs early life appear in his most famous novel, The Great Gatsby, published in 1925. Like Fitzgerald, Nick Carraway is a thoughtful young man from Minnesota, educated at an Ivy League school (in Nickâs case, Yale), who moves to New York after the war.
