Winter Dreams

In this post, I'm going to talk about a short story (I think) called "Winter Dreams".  Winter dreams was writing by F. Scott Fitzgerald, who also wrote "The Great Gatsby".  The story follows the life of Dexter, his meetings with a woman named Judy and how he started out working peasants jobs to being very rich.  During our discussing in class, the teacher explained how similar both this and "The Great Gatsby" are alike, in the sense that the main character fell in love with a high class girl and wants to impress her by getting rich.  I never read "The Great Gatsby" so do not quote me on this.  All I have to say is the story is interesting, I like the main character Dexter and I like something that's like a rags to riches story.  Is it for everyone, I don't know but I enjoyed it.
