El Gran Gatsby
Capítulo 3, Página 9
Taking
our
scepticism
for
granted,
he
rushed
to
the
bookcases
and
returned
with
Volume
One
of
the
Stoddard
Lectures.
“See!”
he
cried
triumphantly.
“It’s
a
bona-fide
piece
of
printed
matter.
It
fooled
me.
This
fella’s
a
regular
Belasco.
It’s
a
triumph.
What
thoroughness!
What
realism!
Knew
when
to
stop,
too—didn’t
cut
the
pages.
But
what
do
you
want?
What
do
you
expect?”
He
snatched
the
book
from
me
and
replaced
it
hastily
on
its
shelf,
muttering
that
if
one
brick
was
removed
the
whole
library
was
liable
to
collapse.
“Who
brought
you?”
he
demanded.
“Or
did
you
just
come?
I
was
brought.
Most
people
were
brought.”
Jordan
looked
at
him
alertly,
cheerfully,
without
answering.
“I
was
brought
by
a
woman
named
Roosevelt,”
he
continued.
“Mrs.
Claud
Roosevelt.
Do
you
know
her?
I
met
her
somewhere
last
night.
I’ve
been
drunk
for
about
a
week
now,
and
I
thought
it
might
sober
me
up
to
sit
in
a
library.”
