What message do phrases such as "the consoling proximity of millionaires" and "white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered" convey to the reader?

Answer:

Financial wealth is desirable to the narrator.

Explanation:

"The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a story about the protagonist Jay Gatsby's tragic story of his pursuit of his young love Daisy Buchanan. Daisy is a wealthy young woman married to Tom Buchanan, while Jay is a self made millionaire.

The story is narrated by Nick Carraway who had moved to this part of town. He is seen describing his house in chapter 1, saying that his <em>"own house was an eyesore, but it was a small eyesore.......</em>". His use of the phrases <em>"the consoling proximity of millionaires"</em> and<em> "white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered" </em>shows that Nick considers financial wealth desirable. He says that staying in close proximity to millionaires is consoling, and the houses in East Egg are fashionable white palaces, glittering, looking attractive in comparison to his own house in West Egg.

Why do some people love avant garde fashion?
wel

Answer:

Explanation:

The people who do avante-garde usually make experimental, radical, or unorthodox pieces with respect to art, culture, or society. It is frequently characterized by aesthetic innovation and initial unacceptability by society. The idea is to push boundaries of society and cultures, of what is usually considered ugly to become beautiful.

People like to push boundaries and explore new ideas that have yet to be explored. They are opposed to the enforced standards of mainstream art that influences everyone. This form of art can be used to push people to think in their own way, and not standardized ways set before us.

We like it, because it is something new, fresh, and original, something we strive to be without worrying about the thoughts of everyone else. The sense is essentially about freedom in the end, and normalizing the beauty in the ugly that many have oppressed for so long, or emphasizing the ugly that needs to be changed.

It is experimental and different, and simply, humans like different things. A push to the future of what our world could be, expressed.

(This applies to fashion, and the general art form itself)
