East Egg: Tom and Daisy Old Money West Egg: Gatsby and Nick New Money

Nick (Narrator)  “I wanted the world to be in uniform and at a sort of moral attention forever; I wanted no more riotous excursions with privileged glimpses into the human heart” (Fitzgerald 2).

References to Daisy’s Voice  Page 8  Page 9  Page 14

Life in the East Egg  “They knew that presently dinner would be over and a little later the evening too would be over and casually put away. It was sharply different from the West where an evening was hurried from phase to phase toward its close in a continuously disappointed anticipation or else sheer nervous dread of the moment” (Fitzgerald 12)

Daisy-about her child  “I’m glad it’s a girl. And I hope she’ll be a fool-that’s the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool” (Fitzgerald 17).

Elements of Modernism/1920s  Disillusionment?  Corruption?  American Dream?  Materialism?  Class Obsession?
