Scott Fitzgerald123. It follows a similar but subversive plot with a <strong>postmodern twist</strong> that deconstructs the metaphors and symbols of the original story. The novel is a <strong>satire</strong> of the American dream the Jazz Age and the literary canon. It is also a <strong>tribute</strong> to Fitzgerald's language and style as Jewusiak imitates and subverts his poetic prose. Jewusiak is fascinated by Fitzgerald's life and work as well as the <strong>criticism</strong> of his flaws and contradictions. He may have written Gatsby as a way of <strong>challenging</strong> the literary canon the American dream and the readers' expectations. He may also have written it as a form of <strong>experimentation</strong> with language style and metafiction. Bartelby</p>
