<span>Jay Gatsby is intended to be the symbol of the American Dream, he was a poor man who came up from nothing and now owns a mansion on the water to throw the most lavish parties. All this money and material is incomparable and unable to fill the void of his deepest want--Daisy. But people are not included in the American Dream, and F Scott Fitzgerald leaves a person at the center of Gatsby's fixation because she is unobtainable, and those who wish to pursue the American Dream may not get all that they desire. They lose connections on the way to their success and in turn, The Great Gatsby is a commentary on the breakdown of such an American ideology.</span>
It is called Alliteration. Alliteration is a literary device where words which are adjacent to each other share the same consonant sound at the beginning. "<span>Peter Piper Picked a Peck of Pickled Peppers" is an example of an alliteration. This literary device is often seen in poems. It is very evident in the literary piece "Beowulf"</span>
