There is a lot of illegally shipped alcohol, which everyone gets's drunk and becomes rowdy. This was during the time prohibition was an illegal and organized crime involving "speakeasies" and such places that would smuggle alcohol. Many of guests were people who were usually dying to get in contact with Gatsby for maybe a job or some big break, they wanted to be rich and famous like him. It shows the "moral decay" and a huge amount of materialism that was running rampant in the 1920's when consumerism was on the rise. In the 1920's it was all fun and games until the huge economic depression of the 30's.

When all the animals are playing the game the magician told them to play, Pau Amma gets impatient and decides to get into the sea by himself, and to separate from the group. This is used to show how the crab thinks he is better than the rest, more important and in power control of the situation.

He now accepts that his death and meets it with perceived dignity by deciding to fall asleep and die from there.

What is the antithesis of freedom?
vampirchik [111]
<span> The exact opposite of freedom depends on how you define "freedom." Freedom can mean independence, opportunity or without restriction. So many words come to mind that would mean the opposite including slavery, captivity, imprisonment, confinement, restraint, among others!!! </span>
