If Chapter 7 was about the true James Gatz, the man hidden beneath the veneer of Gatsby, Chapter 8 is about the true world, the one hidden beneath the shiny exterior of the dreams we adorn it with. What Fitzgerald creates is a world without meaning, a world of raw matter, and while it isn’t a pretty sight, it's an important one. 

In our penultimate episode of season 2, Bobby and Nesha sit down with book collector and Fitzgerald aficionado Sarah Goldstein to discuss the Great Depression, Bruce Springsteen, and what happens when dreams don’t come true.
