The Great Gatsby is a novel written by F. Scott Fitzgerald. It is said to be one of the greatest American novels of the last century‚ not only for it’s tale of hope and disillusion‚ but also for the way it portrayed the spirit of the 1920s.

Reflective Statement – A Doll’s House In the play‚ “A Doll’s House” written by Henrik Ibsen‚ there is a strong statement of existentialism throughout. Interestingly enough‚ it seems that each of the three acts in the play correspond to a stage within the concept of existentialism‚ in the order of which they occur.
