Answer:

B.It lends a self-deprecating sense of humor that makes the narrator credible is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The Great Gatsby is a book by American author Francis Scott Fitzgerald; it is about a group of people living in the fictional city called West Egg, Long Island. The main character is Jay Gatsby and his passions and obsessions.
