Nick's bias becomes clear in the earliest pages of the book, when he tells us that <u>“there was something gorgeous about him [Gatsby], some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life.”</u> We are inclined to see Gatsby as a sensitive genius and to side with him in the romantic triangle between Gatsby, Daisy, and Tom.
The narrator describes Gatsby as having something gorgeous about him. He also says that Gatsby is optimistic about life, has an extraordinary gift for hope, and is romantic in a way that no one else is.
