Answer 1

Answer:

By the end of the novel, nick leaves the east for the midwest because he views the midwest as a place of traditional values and attention to morality.

Explanation:

Nick Carraway is the narrator in the novel "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald. By the end of the story, he returns to the midwest, leaving the east after going through a great deal. While living close to New York and after mingling with the high society from that time, Nick has seen it all. All types of sins, criminals accusing criminals, betrayers pointing fingers at betrayers. He has seen a world of vapid people whose only purpose is to party their troubles away. They drink, dance, gossip, have affairs, and despise one another, all in an effort to forget their own faults, their own sadness. After the main character, Gatsby, is killed as a result of a provoked misunderstanding, Nick has had enough. He's done with the hypocrisy of the wealthy. He goes back to a place of traditional values and attention to morality.
