        <description><![CDATA[1.  Ch.2 Nick's first meeting with Tom's mistress, Myrtle Wilson: &quot;she was in the middle thirties and faintly stout but she carried her surplus flesh sensuously as some women can....She smiled slowly and walk[ed] through her husband as if he were a ghost.&quot; 2. A little later in her sister's apartment, after she has changed into her afternoon dress, &quot;the intense vitality that had been so remarkable in the garage was converted...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Nick Carroway is a good and logical choice for a narrator because, although the character tells the story in first person, he is able to tell us the story of Gatsby and Daisy (and others) from an objective third person point of view.  Though he is involved in the events, he is really set on the outside of everything as a onlooker and observer. Additionally, Nick's opening lines tell us that he will be a good, neutral and objective narrator....]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Nick Carraway is so greatly affected by the shallowness, immorality, and dishonesty of East Egg and West Egg that, by the end of the novel, he feels compelled to move back to the Midwest.  When Nick first moves to New England he, quite honestly, doesn't know what to think.  Throughout the book, however, Nick learns the difference between the &quot;two unusual formations of land&quot; that are East Egg and West Egg (4).  West Egg is...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Gatsby is really the only character in the novel whose age is actually hinted to by Nick.  Nick goes through a detailed description of Gatsby and his &quot;elaborate&quot; way of speaking around chapter four.  In this chapter, Nick specifically states that Gatsby is &quot;a year or two over thirty.&quot;  The reader can assume from this that most of the other characters are of the same age because they mention that they all went to college at...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The Buchanans, Jordan Baker, and most of Gatsby's guests can be considered the &quot;lost generation&quot; in The Great Gatsby because they are all products of the shallow wealth and frivolity of the &quot;Roaring Twenties.&quot;  This is compared, of course, to the previous generation who would experience the tragedies of World War I and the next generation who would wallow in the Great Depression.  People like Tom, Daisy, &amp; Jordan...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[In The Great Gatsby, there are a few sincere and honest moments that Nick observes.  He observes sincere moments between Pammy and Daisy, as well as between Tom and Daisy.One of these scenes occurs in chapter VII when Pammy (Tom and Daisy's daughter) has an honest, sincere childlike interaction with her mother in which they banter about the child's dress.  It is interesting to note that when Daisy asks Pammy, &quot;How do you like mother's...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The &quot;American Dream&quot; as shown in the novel is that anyone, with enough drive and determination, can become whatever he wants.  The dream comes with the warning though, that corrupted desires can corrupt the dream.  Jay Gatsby wanted to rise above his humble beginnings and he knew he wanted this at an early age as evidenced by the notations in the book Jay's father brought with him to New York when Jay was killed.  Jay worked to...]]></description>
