Myrtle and Gatsby have one thing in common: they're both trying to rise above their station. Like Gatsby, Myrtle isn't happy with the class she was born to. She insists that she married beneath her, and she tries to talk about the "lower orders" as though she's not one of them: "I told that boy about the ice." Myrtle raised her eyebrows in despair at the shiftlessness of the lower orders. "These people! You have to keep after them all the time" (2.69).

So, what makes Gatsby and Myrtle different? Gatsby is a tragic hero, while Myrtle, in Fitzgerald's portrait, is a ridiculous fool. Is it that Gatsby strives out of love, while Myrtle does it out of greed? Or is it simply because Gatsby is a man—and Myrtle had the tragedy of being born a woman?

Answer:

Through the use of formal language and informal dialogue, Zora Neale Hurston was able to convey her own cultural experiences.

Explanation: Zora Neale Hurston, a famous writer during the Harlem Renaissance wrote her famous "Their Eyes were Watching God". It narrates the story of a black woman in Harlem that depicts issues of race and gender issues prevalent in those times through it's main character Janie Crawford. After two failed marriages, she fell in love with a much younger man, Tea Cake. Though she had married for love, she is reluctant to publicly accept him as her husband because of the social pressure and the opinion of the people and what they may say. Throughout the story, we find the various characters talking in formal and informal language, contrasting between the two. And it is through this pattern that the author Hurston is able to successfully convey her own cultural experiences within the novel.
