"F. Scott Fitzgerald’s life is a kind of parable—the story of a writer who dreams of becoming rich and famous, succeeds, and is then destroyed by his dream; who realizes his gifts early and burns out early"

American Culture
Our past books dealt with women, race, and poverty. Since the beginning of USA, we have a big diversity due to the history. A group of people colonizes and many immigrants came looking for the some opportunities. The "American Dream," I think is near us, we hoped to achieve democracy and opportunities for people wanting freedom. Right now, we are facing an obstacle but I think life should have many obstacles and I am sure we will get through it just fine.
