Question

It's been 5 years since daisy and gatsby have seen each other. Describe the multiple things Gatsby has done as explained by Jordan, to make sure that their paths cross again.

Answer 1

Since Gatsy first met Daisy, five years have passed because he has been away at war and then involved in business to make the money he believes he needs to win Daisy's love. Not until he is rich does he arrive at West Egg. In the meantime Daisy has married Tom Buchanan and had a daughter, Pammie. Gatsby also threw huge parties hoping that Daisy would one day stumble across the party. He even bought a house across from hers.
