Who is the “Owl-Eyed Man” and what is he so fascinated by in Gatsby’s library?
Answer: The Owl-Eyed Man is a character from <em>the Great Gatsby</em>. He is fascinated because the books in Gatsby's library are real.
Explanation:
The Owl-Eyed Man is a character from Fitzgerald's novel <em>the Great Gatsby</em>. We never learn his real name, but we do find out that he is middle-aged and wears enormous owl-eyed spectacles.
Owl Eyes and Nick stumble across each other at Gatsby's party. Owl Eyes is surprised that the books in Gatsby's library are real. Since he knows that Gatsby is pretending to be someone he is not, he believed that Gatsby must have put cardboard imitations on the shelves. He is fascinated by the actual effort Gatsby put in projecting an image of himself. The Owl-Eyed Man knows that Gatsby is not being honest, but does not judge him for that. He even admires Gatsby for creating such a great illusion.
Could Fitzgerald be using him as a symbol for the concern he (Fitzgerald) had for the state of the “modern world” during the 1920’s?
Answer:
The novel is set in 1922, at the beginning of a decade known in the United States as ''the Roaring Twenties''. This time period was characterized by increased spending, new styles of dressing and new music genres. Back then, people rejected traditional values and spent time dancing and attending parties. Many Americans spent a fortune on expensive clothes.
Fitzgerald makes us see the world through the eyes of the "Owl-Eyed Man''. It could be argued that, in this way, he criticizes the state in the society in 1920s. People bought expensive goods only to impress other people. Instead of focusing on their inner happiness, it seems that people only cared about how others perceived them. This is particularly seen in Gatsby's character. Gatsby wants to present himself as an educated man who earned his wealth through hard work, even though he did not even graduate from Oxford, and only spent five weeks there. Moreover, it is possible that he was engaged in criminal activities, and thus earned the money. Although he feels empty inside, Gatsby wants other people to recognize his success and wealth.

Explanation:
Plagiarism is the act of using someone else’s ideas and pasting them off as their own. Even though someone like Karen may have forgotten to add citations, reading her essay would make it very clear that she is adding in her own ideas; she just forgot to add in the sources of which she tried to find information from. Alan didn’t do any work and tried to pass off the whole essay as his own. He did so on purpose too.
Answer:
The protagonist handles the conflict quite poorly in the beginning of the story because he is so hungry and lose hope, this is stated "Hunger made our envy as dull and feeble as all our other feelings. We had no strength left for feelings, to search for easier work, to walk, to ask, to beg." but then gets the urge for freedom. Because the protagonist is in the gulag and his friend has found a map to escape and chooses to go with his friend, this is stated “I’m willing,” I said, opening my eyes. “Only I’ve got to feed myself up first.”. the outcome from the conflict is them trying to escape due to the poor conditions.
