To move forth to the second point, we also come to the idea that Gatsby couldn’t achieve his dream, for he was struggling with the concept of the dream, and we realize this by seeing him trying to love a memory that ceased to exist. As we can be led in, we see in the end of chapter 6 that Gatsby throws a party, but he notices Daisy didn’t like it. As F. Scott Fitzgerald states, “’Can’t repeat the past?’ he cried incredulously ‘why of course you can!’” (116) Nick tells Gatsby (in summarization, this is not how he said it specifically) not to feel bad about the past, because you can’t repeat it. Gatsby, in reply, states the quote previously noted. The significance of this quote is that it displays us the feelings Gatsby has for his memories.
Obviously, the conflict between Lysandra and Elaine is shown by Lysandra being so mad she withdraws on her dream to be to herself. Lysandra also shows jealousy towards Elaine. She does this by stealing Elaine’s boyfriend. Elaine explains how Lysandra does this by saying, “As she and Brett moved off into the darkness the looked like one person. That’s how close they were.” (72).
Although both Winston and Julia do not like the Party their philosophy when it comes to life and the Party are different. Julia grew up in the time were there was always the Party unlike Winston making her want to rebel against the adults. Julia is pretends to be a conformist but rebells against the Party because she feels she should not be controlled. Julia is part of the Party but rebells when her and Winston make love. Going against Big Brother with Winston was not Julia's first time, proving her to disagreement with The Party thoughts.
Josie resents Nonna’s interference in both hers’ and Mama’s lives and despises her grandmother for being set in her ways. Josie could not live with the fact that Nonna had been such a hypocrite, treating her mum the way she did. Josie and Mama have a close relationship and Josie doesn’t want anyone between them. One minute they love each other to bits and spend hours in deep and meaningful conversations and the next they will be fight about the most ridiculous things. Christina is unmarried
She can’t go back and forth for the richer man just so she has more money. In comparison, Tom has his own little affairs. When he and Gatsby are arguing, he talks his affairs in relation with his wife. He tells Gatsby: “And what’s more, I love Daisy too. Once in a while I go off on a spree and make a fool of myself, but I always
Its clear Gatsby and Daisy have some unfinished business no one likes to be the third wheel. When Gatsby specifically says show her around I think she must be a girl who loves money and he thinks he can win her back by showing her expensive things. 60WORDS Chapter VI: ‘’So he invented just the sort of jay Gatsby that a seventeen year old boy would be likely to invent , and to this conception he was faithful to the end.’’ (pg.104) This explains speak much. Gatsby is a little liar but why does he feel he has to lie about his past life. He even lied about his real name like that’s childish.
He married Daisy with sole interest in her social status and family name. He obviously doesn’t love her if he is having random affairs all the time. So Tom and Daisy basically just have a marriage based on money and social status so they really should just be business partners. Personally, I don’t understand why Nick tolerates anyone other than Gatsby. He goes to all of their dinners and parties when he really doesn’t like any of them.
This is made clean by his degrading treatment of Myrtle at one of their parties, when he breaks her nose for mentioning his wife's name. The Buchanan marriage is also a complete failure as their relationship is not one of true love. Tom’s wealth and status seemed to be
