Yet his actions of following and having hope in her would lead him to find her actions not supporting what he wished for. Daisy wants to be a part of his life, yet her actions and decisions would hurt him both physically and mentally. She believed a life with Gatsby would finally fulfill her. When she decides to leave the hotel room after the argument, “Staying with Gatsby she decides to drive the car overwhelmed with anger and realizes her fun with Gatsby has ended”(Samkanashvili 48). All her expectations came to the reality that what she wanted was not going to ever be what she got. Only caring about herself and her issues, after that was when she killed Myrtle. “And as a result of Myrtle’s death Gatsby gets killed for Daisy’s foolish behavior”(Samkanashvili 48). Her unreasonable consciousness was not what could save Daisy now. What she did led to the death of the person we believe she loved, yet what she did for him was not very impressive. When Gatsby’s funeral came “Daisy hadn’t sent a message or a flower”(Fitzgerald 174). She did not want people to know she was caught up in this business. Daisy and Tom went away on a vacation to get away from what had happened. She never cared enough for Gatsby to risk her own appearance of being ruined through her mistakes and misjudgement.

In addition, weather is also used to set the mood of the story. “A breeze blew through the room, blew the curtains in at one end and out the other like pale flags, twisting them up toward the frosted wedding-cake of the ceiling, and then rippled over the wine-colored rug, making a shadow on it as wind does on the sea.” (pg.8).

The Great by:Azjshai. F Gatsby Essay In The Great Gatsby the author F. Scott Fitzgerald uses the weather as an expression of gatsby’s emotions, which paints a bigger picture for the reader to understand what gatsby is feeling. The first appearance of weather being used as symbolism is when gatsby and daisy have a reunion at nick’s house, it’s cloudy and raining when gatsby is confused and not sure if he should talk to daisy but as soon as daisy and gatsby talk the clouds and rain go away.

Gatsby is delighted to hear that and, proceeds to tell Daisy to inform Tom “…that you never loved him” (Fitzgerald 131). Daisy’s incapability to do that amazed Gatsby and opened his eyes to the understanding that she not only loves him but she actually does love Tom. Finding out that she loves both men just makes Gatsby strive to win her over even more and he was doing just that. The two were very flirtatious one night in front of Tom, which infuriated him and resulted in his demand that the two go home. The two do as they are told and Daisy drives home in Gatsby’s car while he was in the passenger seat. The two were in a hit and run killing a lady on the side of the road.

When thinking of the weather, what usually appears after rain is the beautiful breeze and extravagant sun. The warmth of the sun tends to put people at ease and creates a moment where they can be clear minded. Gatsby was able to overlook his nervous state and remind Daisy of who he was before when they first met. This change in the weather mirrors the loosening of tension between Gatsby and Daisy. Pathetic fallacy also takes place in chapters seven, and eight. During chapter seven or the hottest time of the summer, Gatsby confronts Tom about the love he and Daisy have found again. This being the hottest day of the summer does not seem to be a coincidence. During extremely hot weather, people tend to get stressed and fed up quicker. In this case, the heat intensifies the existing tension between Tom and Gatsby as they fight over Daisy. Foreshadowing can be used to see that Gatsby's and Daisy's relationship will soon come to an end. The moment Daisy states that she still loved Tom, Gatsby realizes the mistake he has made in assuming nothing has changed over the time they have been apart.When experiencing intense heat, the best option is to find somewhere cool. Between chapters seven and eight, seven is the heat and eight is the cool down. In chapter eight, after the destructive summer fight in chapter seven, it is now autumn. Autumn is known heavily for the falling of leaves, the cooling of weather, and

Nick specifically describes this when he notes the following observation, “After half an hour, the sun shone again… there were twinkle-bells of sunlight in the room, he [Gatsby] smiled like a weather man… and repeated the news to Daisy…. ‘I’m glad, Jay.’ Her throat… told only of her unexpected joy” (Gatsby 2004). In this excerpt, Nick’s heavy focus on the sun’s depiction indicates the summer setting to readers.
