In the second of two episodes about reinterpretations of The Great Gatsby, my guest, Michael Coyle, and I discuss The Chosen and the Beautiful by Nghi Vo, in which Daisy Buchanan’s golf star friend Jordan Baker narrates a dark, fantastical and politically-charged version of the same events that Nick Carraway tells in Fitzgerald’s 1925 novel.

Scott Fitzgerald, so check out next month’s episode, too, for a different approach, if that’s your kind of thing.
