Which two sentences in this excerpt from F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Winter Dreams" seem to foreshadow Dexter’s future obsession with
irina1246 [14]

The two sentences that seem to foreshadow Dexter’s future obsession with “possessing” Judy Jones are "He wanted not association with glittering things and glittering people—he wanted the glittering things themselves" and "Often he reached out for the best without knowing why he wanted it—and sometimes he ran up against the mysterious denials and prohibitions in which life indulges".

In "Winter Dreams" by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Dexter, who is the main character of the story, believes that Judy is the ideal woman. Although she is selfish, he pursues Judy because he has an idealistic view of her; in other words, he does not conceive her as a flawed human being. However, this idealistic view is shattered when she becomes a housewife.

This two sentences seem to foreshadow Dexter's obsession  because the phrase<u> "glittering things" could refer to Judy,</u> whom Dexter sees as radiant. Moreover, the second sentence, which implies that Dexter wanted things without knowing why, is connected to the fact that <u>he never loved Judy for who she was since he was always in love with an ideal of womanhood. </u>
