They began to become really good friends when they both find out that they have one thing in common, Daisy. Gatsby tells Nick that he was close to her and Nick tells him that they're cousins.

Because, many audience does not have a clue about what is out there in the war zone, which can be unbelievable the simple hard true or with a just exaggeration make the story more real. But in many cases the story get a little carry away with few white exaggeration to make the story fun, entertaining and believable.

This novel is well known for many things, but possibly the most well-noted is its rites-of-passage portrayal and throughout many phrases and paragraphs can be extracted that add to this. At the beginning of the book, it is clear that Jim has been well-protected from the outside world by his parents and knows fairly little of it, as any 11 year-old would. On the second page in Ballard writes: “like all children, Jim was intrigued by alcohol but vaguely disapproved of it,” the fact that Jim was ‘intrigued’ by alcohol exhibits that he was curious of it, it was something he had never really understood. This highlights his youthfulness and innocence. A page after this, it is clear he has great interest in childish things: “Yang enjoyed impressing his eleven-year-old passenger with tall tales of film stunts and trick effects.” Young children, generally, enjoy stories told with great exaggeration and ‘tall tales’ implies that these stories were only partly true, most likely exaggerated to please and ‘impress’ Jim.
Perhaps my own personal opinion on the matter is why I fell in love with the show Curb Your Enthusiasm. In the show, Larry David (starring as himself), finds himself in several awkward situations because he follows a certain code of ethics and principles and challenges anyone who defies them. Larry may act stubbornly to prove his point, which causes the people he is confronting to react in an angry way, but his social codes are generally accepted by the show’s viewers as people tend to find that they could easily relate to them. For me, and several other fanatics of the show, Larry is brave for standing up for his beliefs. People wish they could be more like him, fearless to challenge those they feel act wrongly.
Frazer quickly became aware of Mazey’s insulting and derogatory behavior towards others.

Learning that a lot of his coworkers experienced Mazey’s disrespectful behavior during their career at Hudson, Frazer realizes that they had similarities. Frazer has a few options in addressing the problem. However, this problem is tricky as no one has ever challenged Mazey due to his expert and position power, making the situation more complex and difficult to resolve.
The play A Doll’s House is filled with unique and very distinctive characters. One in particular being Torvald, Nora’s husband, best friend to Mr. Rank, and a father to three children. Automatically, once we were introduced to Torvald’s character we knew he was always the power in his relationships, especially in his relationship with Nora. Our initial reaction of Torvald was that he was a seemingly nice man who cared for his family, and their betterment. While this is true, we soon began to see the negative connotations in his speech, which at times contradicted our views on how kind he was.
Fitzgerald aims to build a sense of trust and so portrays characters as well educated and enlightened, as such that Nick is ‘inclined to reserve all judgments’ and being ‘privy to the secret grief of wild, unknown men’. This forces the reader to trust Nick’s retrospective recollections; and the fact that the reader is aware of how his perceptions may have been altered by future knowledge or the erosion of memory through time indicates this memoir may be an edited version that is not completely reflective on the true events. Fitzgerald clearly sets the setting of the whole novel: the West Egg and East Egg, it is arguably said that it could be referred to the history of the Christopher Columbus story. This enhances the imagery of an egg as the start of a new life; Nick felt that ‘life was beginning over again’. Moreover, Fitzgerald allows Nick to point out the superficial similarities between the two communities, revealing differences gradually; extravagant wealthy people populate both Eggs and to the outsiders they are a source of ‘perpetual wonder’.
He had been taught to reserve judgements about other people as if he was to compare them to himself he may misunderstand them. The readers learn more about the narrator in the form of a character as nick caraway reveals his past, education, social knowledge etc. The reader also realises further in the opening chapters that the narrator/character Nick Carraway goes against his words and upbringing in the brief mention of jay Gatsby and he judges him “there was something gorgeous about him”. This therefore gives the readers the impression that nick is a hypocritical character and could possibly be a biased narrator. F Scott FitzGerald presents Nick Carraway as a character and narrator by showing in Nick’s own way that he has come “back from the East last autumn” fed up off his experiences there.
Although Thady Quirk claims to be true and loyal to the family, key moments during the narrative depict his intentions as being quite possibly the opposite, due to his effective assistance in his own son's takeover of the estate. At the beginning of the story, Thady takes prides in how he’s called by everyone “honest Thady.” If he’s truly honest, then his account of every event would be reliable, true, and accurate. He also has a tendency to only share the good characteristics of people with the reader, even if they are a drunk, in debt, have a gambling problem, or any the above. One Lord of the Rackrent estate, Sir Kit, is described as being an abusive husband for allowing his wife stay locked away in a room “upon which my lady shut herself up in her own room, and my master said she might stay there, with an oath; and to make sure of her, he turned the key in the door, and kept it ever after in his pocket.” (29)
