Tom Wolfe, who writes about "status," is on a similar vein to Gatsby. Both are more realistic and more thought-provoking than anything I've seen come out recently (excepting, of course, Wolfe's latest, which was in the last couple years).

I'm a big fan of F. Scott Fitzgerald. I've only read two of his books so far, but I like them both. Tender is the Night is kind of sad, but such good writing, as usual. My favorite is The Great Gatsby! What an awesome book! I always heard it was THE greatest American novel and I believe it. His style of writing is amazing.
