Part 1- Shayla McFarland

     Our narrator through The Great Gatsby is Nick Carraway. He is cousins with Daisy, a neighbor to Gatsby, and a potential love interest of Daisy’s friend Jordan. We also know he is a war vet, lived in Minnesota before moving to New York, and graduated from Yale. He is kind of seen as the person who is friends with everyone, has a healthy curiosity, and would go along with whatever you ask him to do.

     I would say he is a seemingly unbiased party living in a rich neighborhood. He experiences everything the rich he hangs out with do, and he always has one opinion or another for it, “I was within and without. Simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life” (Fitzgerald 40). To me, he almost seems like a puppy just following around its owners. He was always learning about whatever his neighbors were getting u to next. While that opinion didn’t change much, I’d say once I reached the end of the book, I didn’t see him as unbiased anymore, blatantly stating how he didn’t approve of Gatsby or like Tom.
