Can't you go back to shitting up classical treads on /mu/ instead of bringing your cluelessness here. You're not qualified to critique your own shitposts.

This, he's like a slightly more tolerable Hemingway.

He had talent, but he hadn't really mastered it until tender is the night. Gatsby is written with wonderful, precise prose, but it lacks the charm and originality of what he wrote when he was less proficient technically.

Tender is the Night and The Crack Up what he really shines in. Even Nabokov, who hated Gatsby, liked them

not a bad writer by any means but I personally find him mediocre even compared to his contemporaries.

definitely not in my top ten or even top 30.

The Great Gatsby is my least favorite thing that he has written and I hated him until I read this side of paradise and the beautiful and the damned.

You know Fitzgerald failed as a screenwriter, right? Or am I just taking your bait?
