Students Signature The Great Gatsby Im known to be a very picky reader. I judge titles, the size of font, and the cover illustration. With all this in mind, I thought I would hate the Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. On the contrary, this entertain was a page turner, and I constantly put up myself at the edge of my seat biting my nails in anticipation. T he descriptions in this book helps you imagine and greet the characters so vividly.Fitzgerald showsan excellent understanding of lives that contain the peachy American Dream of being a millionaire and being happily married, however are corrupted by greed. The more you read into the novel, the more you get pulled into a twisted love story. In the beginning of the novel, I was a little lost. I couldnt understand who goes to an extravagant mansion ships company without knowing who the host is, or why nobody tried to contract out. Luckily, our narrator, pass, goes searching for this host.A drunken man wearing owl glasses stumbles upon Nick and begins observing the novels on the large bookcase. To his surprise, all the novels are real and non a facade to make the host look intelligent. When I discussed this with my teacher, she verbalise this may be a foreshadowing that resident of this wealthy familiarity use wealth to cover up their wrongdoings and moral decay. What is the host , Gatsby, hiding if he wasnt getting credit for any of his parties? This mystery pulled me into the book and thats when I began to love it.We soon meet the rich and romantic Gatsby and who seems like he has his whole life together. Hes well reckon for being in the army, rich and handsome. Despite all the magic, its a cruel facade. Behind the glitter lies a sad story with sullenness and intensity. The Great Gatsby shows his desire into harsh, vivid light. He is a character who is so perfectly and tragically characterized, as he forgot his honest past as Jay Gatsby, and lost Daisy, his neat love, who perfectly plays her part as innocent malevolence.If thats not enough, Gatsby must also compete with Tom, Daisys husband, who craftily watches temporary hookup he boasts of his physique and wealth. The two struggle to play their position in this twisted love triangle, which harms countless victims. Among the disorder, seems to be the only one with true knowledge of what is right, but doesnt stop the chaos. The relationship is a trouncing where no one truly wins. All in all, The Great Gatsby is just about deception and the American Dream.Fitzgerald blurs our view with reality of the harsh world, yet slyly lets us see clearly enough to see Nicks view on the chaos. Because Gatsby represents the truth of the American Dream, Fitzgerald shows that it will only proceed to the decay of innocence and trouble, as Gatsby did during his transition from an honest, to corrupt man. Fitzgerald delicately handles this analyzable scheme in a way I have neer seen replicated in authors today. I enjoy the book because once you think you know whats going to happen, Fitzgerald slyly flips the script perfectly.
