This is shown when Nick states, “They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money and vast carelessness” (Fitzgerald 187-8). Disgusted by their behavior, Nick begins…

    Great Gatsby: How Does Fitzgerald Tell the Story in Chapter 3

    Chapter three is written in 1st person narrative, meaning that you only get one viewpoint, the narrators, making is difficult to believe everything the narrator is telling you. Also, because it is written in a retrospective narrative, Nick could choose to give away or keep information for however long he wants, meaning he has full control over what information the reader gets. Just before the start of chapter 3, Nick has woken up after a very drunken night surrounded by people he doesn’t know, thus making the reader question his reliability, making reading the next chapter cautious because you don’t know whether to believe everything that Nick is telling you.…

    What Does Fitzgerald Establish in the Opening of the Great Gatsby?

    Fitzgerald immediately establishes that Nick is a privileged person, who has had ‘advantages’ that other people did not. He was educated at Yale, and as such he has connections to some ‘enormously rich’ people, among them being Tom and Daisy Buchanan. At the same time, however, readers are made aware that Nick chooses to ‘reserve all judgments’, which he claims has made him ‘privy to the secret griefs of wild, unknown men’. There are times when Gatsby, Daisy, and Tom share confidences in him, which consequently allows Nick to see both the hollowness of Daisy’s (and indirectly humanity’s) ‘sophisticat[ion]’, as well as the ‘extraordinary gift of hope’ that Gatsby possesses. This also makes readers aware of these different characteristics, and through Nick, readers can form their own judgments of the different characters.…

In chapter 7 Nick sees Tom and Daisy having an awkward dinner where there was total silence. As Nick was trying to sneak off to go home, he looks back to see if Gatsby is safe. As he looks in the window he sees Tom and Daisy nodding at each other in a way where there could have been a decision made or a plan thought out. That’s where Nick realized what was really going on which made him feel unsatisfied and disillusioned towards Tom and Daisy and towards himself, because he now knows information that could hurt Gatsby. This shows the relationship towards Nick and Gatsby and how is causes the dissatisfaction towards the two. Later when Gatsby is killed Carraway is most dillusioned when Daisy does not even show for the funeral. Both Tom and Daisy had packed up and gone away without a forwarding address.

    Carraway As A Narrator

    Right from the start, Nick judged every single person that came by him. Without even knowing the person, he judged them on how they looked, dressed, and also how they acted. What makes him unreliable is the fact that he says he doesn’t judge anyone, yet he clearly does. According to Scott Donaldson, he thinks this makes him deceptive narrator also. “But he does not suspend judgment. In fact, he judges, and condemns, practically everyone he meets in the course of the novel” (Donaldson 104). Instead of waiting and getting to know another character, he has his mind set on who they are. Therefore giving us a wrong impression and misunderstanding a character. When Tom brings Nick to meet his “girl”, Nick already has his opinion of her. “Though I was curious to see her I had no desire to meet her” (Fitzgerald 28). Nick already didn’t like Myrtle because she was Tom’s mistress. Hence making us believe Myrtle is the bad person in this situation, but in reality Tom is the bad guy. Given this information, makes me think twice whether to trust Nick or not.…

    F. Scott Fitzgerald and Gatsby Change

    Some readers can be hugely irritated by Nick as a narrator because he can be seen as lacking insight and very unperceptive ultimately this makes the reader feel wary about trusting Nick. He cannot give an accurate account of what has happened between Gatsby and Daisy before he met them. To make up for his lack of information, he turns to other sources such as Jordan Backer and Gatsby himself. At various points in the novel, Nick’s conversations with other characters serve to inform the reader about events that took place before Nick’s involvement in the story. In chapter IV, Nick listens to Jordan Baker describe the history of the romance between Gatsby and Daisy. However he uses direct speech and para-phrases what she has said so how do we know what we hear is accurate.…
