Answer:

It means that the fellow in question (Gatsby) is like David Belasco, a theater producer and playwright who is known for his realistic sets.

So, he compares Gatsby to David Belasco.

Explanation:

In the Great Gatsby, a dude who was at one of Gatsby's many parties who was expecting Gatsby's books to be fake just like everything else about Gatsby is fake. But the reverse was the case - the books turned out to be real. But Gatsby has never read them. At this point, the guy called Gatsby, "...a regular Belasco". Actually comparing Gatsby to David Belasco, a stage/theater producer and playwright.

David Belasco is known to have pioneered many innovative forms of stage lighting and special effects which he used to create realism and naturalism.

Afina-wow [57]

Concrete imagery helps the unrealistic scenarios in magical realist stories seem more realistic in that:

  • It paints vivid descriptions with colors and other forms of art that people can identify with.

The kind of tone that writers of magical realism normally use in their stories is:

  • Dispassionate or cold

<h3>What is magical realism?</h3>

Magical realism is a form of writing in which the writer explores real events while including elements of magic.

Those who produce literary works that bother on magical realism often have a cold or dispassionate tone.

All the elements of the story are hard facts and are not presented in a mild or empathetic manner. When people go to the cinemas or read books that are associated with magic realism, they are often in suspense as they do not what actions might come next.

So, the writers of such storylines serve entertainment that is blunt and devoid of empathy. That is why we can say that magical realism has elements of coldness in its apparent tone.
