I\\u2019m thrilled to announce that I\\u2019ve been named as a finalist for three Independent Audiobook Awards. There isn\\u2019t a classics category this year, and so Scaramouche is a finalist in the \\u201cGeneral Fiction\\u201d category as well as the \\u201cBest Male Narrator\\u201d category. And seriously, getting nominated for the Best Male Narrator is like already winning. All the other narrators in that group are among the best of the best. I\\u2019ve taken coaching from some of them. I\\u2019m also a finalist in the \\u201cParanormal\\u201d category for \\u201cSucker Punch\\u201d, the third volume of Kristen Painter\\u2019s First Fangs Club series. Its genre is technically Paranormal Women\\u2019s Fiction. Winners are announced in June. I\\u2019ll let you know how it goes!

App users can hear the poem, \\u201cSo We\\u2019ll Go No More a Roving\\u201d, by George Gordon, Lord Byron, in the special features for today\\u2019s episode.

And if it\\u2019s more convenient, we are streaming our episodes through YouTube, now. A link can be found in the comments section for today\\u2019s episode.

Today\\u2019s episode is the third of five where we will be presenting F. Scott Fitzgerald\\u2019s immortal The Great Gatsby. This piece is a little edgier than the stuff we usually present. The themes deal largely with racism, and socio-economic elitism. There\\u2019s also some rougher language, just so you have a heads up.

And now, The Great Gatsby, part 3 of 5, by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
