The Great Gatsby
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a 172-page fiction. It is written about a man named Nick Carraway and his adventures with an eccentric neighbour named Jay Gatsby. The story is told from Nick's viewpoint of the irregular circumstances that went on over the time that they knew each other. When Nick Carraway moved east to West Egg Village, he got more than he expected to find. He started off to a good start by meeting up with a relative, Daisy, her husband, Tom, a good friend from the war, and a friend of Daisy's named Jordan. Over the course of time, Nick was asked to attend Jay Gatsby's garden party, meeting up with Jordan again and Gatsby himself. Nick soon became close friends with his neighbour and a frequent visitor at his house. Though Nick was very poor and Gatsby was very rich, they seemed to accompany each other everywhere w
When they were on their way home from New York, Gatsby and Daisy came home in Gatsby's car and Mrs. When Tom had to stop at the Wilson's gas bar earlier that day, Jordan was sitting in the vehicle with him and Nick and Myrtle has assumed Jordan to be Tom's wife. The story ended with Gatsby being shot to death in his own pool by the man who was the husband of Tom's mistress, Myrtle Wilson. Gatsby later admitted to Nick (through Jordan) that he had once been in love with Daisy and that the fact of the matter was that he still loved her, thus the reason that he had moved to the West Egg. Wilson ran out in front to try and stop them and was hit by the vehicle. But she later admitted to loving Gatsby for the entire time that she had been apart from him. Carraway's aforementioned cousin, Daisy, had known Gatsby for many years before this. Tom had driven Gatsby's car into New York that day and Gatsby had driven Tom's coupe. But Nick tossed most of them over his shoulder with a grain of salt, though he did question Gatsby on a few. The after effects of this act would be later found out. No one really seemed to know what Gatsby did for a living, but it was rumoured that he had inherited most of his fortune but was into bootlegging as his current occupation. Gatsby kept up his claim that he had gone to Oxford although in the end it came out that he only attended for 5 months after the war.
