Quinn · Answer 1

The correct answer is

C. The enjoyment of life and living for today

Explanation:

The best example of the literature that emerged in roaring 20' is Fitzgerald's novel, Great Gatsby.

In the beginning, a reader might think that it is a love story, but since the entire action of the novel is put in a small number of days, the conclusion is that the work criticizes and exemplifies the behavior of the roaring 20' generations and what lead to the great depression.
