The Men of Gatsby







The men of Gatsby are all very differnt much like the women. There is Nick, who I think is everyone's favorite, Gatsby, who we find out isn't exactly what everyone thought he was, and Tom who is arrogant.






Nick Carraway is someone that everyone can relate to and like. He is so nice and so carin about everyone. He is Daisy's cousin and that is how he met Jordan, the girl he is "dating". Out of all the men in Gatsby he seems to be the most level headed. He tries to make everyone happy and stay out of all the drama. He lives next door to Gatsby and was always sceptical of him but when he found out that Gatsby knew that Daisy had hit Myrtle and didn't do anything about it, he really didn't like him.






Jay Gatsby is a very interesting man. He keeps to himself and seems to have a lot of secrets. He throws a lot of parties at his house and we find out later that it is because he hopes that Daisy will come to one one day. He eventually gets in touch with Daisy because Nick invited both of them over to tea. Ever since then Daisy and Gatsby have been inseperable. Gatsby decided to tell Daisy's husband, Tom about them which caused Tom to become very upset.






Tom is married to Daisy but doesn't seem to have any real interest in her. He is having an affair with Myrtle Wilson. He starts to get a little skepitcal about Gatsby when Daisy starts spending a lot of time him. He later finds out that Daisy and Gatsby are in fact having an affair. Then on his way home from finding that out, he stops by where Myrtle lives and sees that she has been hit by a car and killed, ironically by Daisy. He seems to be more upset by Myrtle being killed then Daisy having an affair.
