Which excerpt from The Great Gatsby is the best example of foreshadowing?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The excerpt from "The Great Gatsby" that is the best example of foreshadowing is the first one:

". . . he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way, and, far as I was from him, I could have sworn he was trembling. Involuntarily I glanced seaward - and distinguished nothing except a single green light, minute and far away, that might have been the end of a dock. When I looked once more for Gatsby he has vanished, and I was alone again in the unquiet darkness."

Explanation:

"The Great Gatsby" is a novel by author F. Scott Fitzgerald. Among its themes are the degradation of society and of the American dream.

The excerpt we selected above serves as an example of foreshadowing. <u>Foreshadowing is a technique used in storytelling - be it in books or movies - in which authors give a piece of information that will later unfold into something important. In this case, the green light represents Gatsby's dreams and ideals. It is unreachable, as is his goal of having Daisy all to himself, as if she were never married to Tom. Nick, the narrator, glances at the light for a moment, and then notices Gatsby has disappeared. That is precisely what will happen later. In pursuit of his dream, Gatsby will end up dead.</u>
