Alternative Ending of The Great Gatsby

“Hey, it’s okay!” she cooed, “I won’t hurt you!” She confessed, as the boy looked to have started to calm down. “What’s your name?” she

“The trick is always to appear fixed, whatever happens. To hold the pattern we were born to, though its significance may be lost to us” (Glenday 49). In The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, fate is explored with its connection to social classes, specific characters, and how these fates stick with these characters throughout the course of their lives. The higher class portrays a more lively, yet insensitive and careless fate in the novel. The working class carries the weight of the higher class, although their contributions come unrecognized to the wealthy. When Jay Gatsby attempts to transition to the upper class, his working class fate made him fail to adapt to the life of the higher society. The role of the car displays a translation

Superheroes will not always save the day and believing in these figures will end in disaster. In F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby, Nick Carraway moves to East Egg near New York City to follow some fantastic dream of making it big. Nick meets him mentor and idol, Jay

Edmund went to respond to Goldie, but by the time his mouth opened, she'd already exited the water, and his white hot gaze was upon his brother. He'd noted the manner in which his sibling's fingers deliberately brushed Goldie's skin as she slipped back into the dress, and decided it best not to speak. Edmund wasn't certain he'd be able to control his anger and annoyance if he did. That damn Walt, always interfering.

In the middle of the night, Alex was in the middle of finishing his paper for a school assignment with already five empty cans of Red Bull. Alex couldn’t think straight knowing that it was due the next day. Exhausted, Alex decides to take a thirty minute nap. What harm would a thirty minute nap do to me?, thought Alex. He went to bed, set the alarm, and fell asleep. Ten minutes seem to pass when Alex wakes up, but something didn’t seem right. He couldn’t seem to move or speak. How odd, Alex thought. Moments passed before he realized that his eyes weren’t even open. Yet, he was aware of all of his surroundings. Is this a dream?, Alex thought to himself. Moments passed when Alex didn’t seem to know what to do but to just look at his room, until

I want to argue that the green light to Gatsby represents a common goal to reach, such that it might not be attainable but he can observe it. A green light at a stop generally means go, but before you go you have to wait until the light turns green. This connects back to when Gatsby and Daisy first met 5 years ago and then were separated. Now that he’s back and he has connections to her, he can finally go after her. I want to explain how close he was to reaching his goal how the author ties it up neatly in the end.

“Sharon and Diane, you are surely having a lot of fun here,” I told my two daughters. We are The Pike, an amusement park in Long Beach, and we they love everything about this place. “Would you two love to have a place like this of our own?” I asked my two daughters. “Yes we love this place lots,” Diane replied. “I love playing on the rides,”Sharon added. “Alright i'll work on it,” I explained.

The disfigured shape of Nick Carraway shifts restlessly in sleep. The latest edition of The News of the World lay in the darkness on the nightstand; London bombing Casualties runs across its thin pages.

This chapter is written two years after Gatsby was killed. With this information, we can conclude that Gatsby is 32 years old when having this flashback. The fact that Gatsby is still remembering this event so vividly around two years later, shows that he has having trouble letting go of the past and moving on.

Rising up in me came the recollection once again, with Gatsby as the catalyst, of my father’s old advice to me, “Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve

Gatsby invites daisy to his mansion, but when Daisy comes she brought Daisy, Gatsby, Nick, Jordan, and Tom (which was a very umcomfortable dinner)

Scott causes the reader to question why they should believe his thesis by continually not standing behind it. Controversy should not scare him (which it seems to do), but embolden him to add new understanding of previous scholarship. The preface reads like an apology for the rocking the academic boat, rather than an example of expertise academic work. However, the book does cause the reader to examine the periphery in new ways. Although he could have skipped about a hundred pages and still communicate his ideas, the book is convincing, if not frustrating with his inability to stand behind his own thesis.

Baz Luhrmann’s interpretation of the final chapter from of “The Great Gatsby” works very well. Even without the scenes that Baz had originally shot, but later removed. The ending is still coherent, it is not missing any vital parts that would leave the viewer confused. The scenes that Baz Luhrmann decided to include also help to demonstrate the things that Nick Carraway says about the New Yorkers at the end of the novel. And the removal of some scenes also helps with Nick’s re-internalization which a major part of the ending of the last

In Chapter 2 there is a train ride with Tom Buchanan and they go to the Valley of Ashes. This place was the complete opposite of the island Nick was used to he was used to a wealthy, and beautiful place. The Valley of Ashes was disgusting, and almost an unliveable enviroment. They find a place called Wilsons Garage and it was pretty much a empty shop. Wilson and his wife Myrtle Lived in here Wilson was a worker and his Wife was very good looking. They seem to fit well into this setting because they live in the valley of ashes and know what its like to live there. From what I've learned about Nick he Is very much alike and not alike the people he spends his time with he has his similarities and his differences. Myrtle drunkenly keeps comment

“Nothing useful in this one, either.” Hermione slams the book shut and adds it to the towering stack on the corner of her desk. She checks the time on her wristwatch – 10:23 pm – and runs a hand over her tired face. “Any luck with yours?”
