1) Gatsby is a mysterious and enigmatic character.

He is wealthy, but does not

belong to a rich family, and an extravagant romantic idealist who obsessively
pursues his lost love, Daisy Buchanan. Gatsby is a tragic figure who always
believed in his dreams but finally becomes delusional in his pursuit of the
American Dream and the past. He is a social climber who reinvents himself
and is ultimately a lonely and isolated individual.
2) Jay Gatsby embodies the American Dream's pursuit of wealth,
self-improvement, social mobility, optimism, individualism, and the pursuit of
happiness without any kind of help.
3) The character most similar to F. Scott Fitzgerald in "The Great Gatsby" is Nick
Carraway. They share similarities in their Midwest backgrounds, Ivy League
education, relocation to the East Coast, involvement in the Jazz Age, and
writerly aspirations.
4) Fitzgerald uses the concept of blindness to show how the power of wealth will
ultimately lead to destruction and for a few death. Gatsby cant see the
weakness of his alternate reality because he is blinded by the lust of power in
a society based on appearance.
5) In The Great Gatsby, Fitzgerald uses refined figurative language such as
simile, metaphor, personification, and symbolism to convey the mood and
themes of the novel. His style is so elegant that it seems almost poetic.
6) The Valley of Ashes symbolizes the downfall of the American Dream by
indicating the hopelessness of the poor, the indulging of the rich and the
beginning of the American Nightmare. It represents a place where the moral
corruption of wealth inequality is on full display.
7) Daisy Buchanan is charming, alluring(ammicante) and often appears
superficial and materialistic. She is also conflicted and torn between her
desires and societal expectations. She seems very shallow but is also very
sardonic.
8) In "The Great Gatsby," cars symbolize wealth, social status, and the rapid
societal changes of the 1920s. They represent the materialism and excess of
the Jazz Age and the characters' pursuit of the American Dream.
9) Mine is definitely Daisy because I feel like is a very modern character. Social
pressure was and is an important issue so the reader tends to sympathize
with her.
10) The Great Gatsby obviously takes place in the United States. Most of the
characters come from the Midwest to the East Coast. In the novel, the East
Coast setting is divided into three distinct places: East- Egg, West Egg ,which
represent the old money wealth and the new riches, and an industrial part of
Queens that the novel calls either the Valley of Ashes or just the ashheaps.
11) The expression "roaring twenties" refers to the decade of the 1920s in the
United States, which was characterized by significant social, cultural, and
economic change, including the proliferation of jazz music, flapper fashion,
and a booming economy marked by extravagance and excess.
