Just Great: A Retelling of Some Book by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Dani Stoller
Dan Cody's Yacht
by Anthony Giardina
Synopsis
THE STORY: In a small Boston suburb, a schoolteacher is struggling to get by when the wealthy father of one of her students surprises her with a financial proposal that could change her daughter’s life.
Suddenly, their worlds collide in ways that open up the question: What truly separates the haves and the have-nots?
Is it wrong to seize an incredible chance, even if the circumstances seem questionable?
Loosely inspired by a passage from The Great Gatsby , DAN CODY’S YACHT probes the troubling relationship between finance and educational opportunity in America.
Press Reviews
