1. This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald
This novel follows the life of Amory Blaine, an attractive and privileged young man who grows up in the early 20th century United States. It explores his experiences in prep school, at Princeton University, and in the real world after graduation, as well as his relationships with a series of young women. The protagonist's life is marked by his pursuit of wealth, status, and love, and his eventual disillusionment with the values of his society. The novel is a critique of the American Dream and a reflection on the lost generation of the 1920s.
