What does this description about Gatsby’s house reveal about his character?

1 answer:

7 0

The description of Gatsby's house (practically dripping with wealth and money) displays several factors. 1.) It establishes that he is "new money" in this society due to the abundance of parties he hosts and the expanse of the entire property. 2.) He flaunts his wealth but does not fully engage in money because of greed. His main reason for living in the home was to be across from Daisy's property and to showcase his wealth to win her over (eventually). 3.) The property shows how disconnected Gatsby (as well as Tom, Daisy, and Nick) are from the impoverished reaches of the towns not far off.
