Is The Great Gatsby really great?
On October 27, 1924, Fitzgerald sent to Max Perkins the manuscript … which he alternately was calling Trimalchio* in West Egg or The Great Gatsby. In his covering letter, he noted, I have an alternative title: Gold-hatted Gatsby. A week later … he was floundering: I have not decided to stick to the title I put on the book, Trimalchio in West Egg. The only other titles that seem to fit it are Trimalchio and On the Road to West Egg. I had two others, Gold- hatted Gatsby and The High-Bouncing Lover**, but they seemed too slight. A month later, he was still mulling over titles, including Among Ash Heaps and Millionaires and still Trimalchio in West Egg. Maybe simply Trimalchio or Gatsby. On January 24th, 1925 in a … letter to Perkins, he noted: Im returning the proof of the title page, etc. Its O.K. but my heart tells me I should have named it Trimalchio. However against all advice I suppose it would have been stupid and stubborn of me. Trimalchio in West Egg was only a compromise. Gatsby is too much like Babbitt*** and The Great Gatsby is weak because theres no emphasis even ironically on his greatness or lack of it. However, let it pass.
What a mistake! Too late he realized it, two weeks before publication date sending off to Perkins … a frantic wire: CRAZY ABOUT TITLE UNDER THE RED WHITE AND BLUE. WHAT WOULD DELAY BE? … Too late, wired Perkins …
