I think
Fitzgerald chose to make Nick the narrator so all his experiences were new. All
the other characters were rich, or had at least basic knowledge of each other,
whereas Nick was seeing everything for the first time. Because of this, it lets
the reader experience what’s going on for the first time too. It almost makes
it seem as though you are going through everything with Nick, adding the
ability to form your own opinions about things without a biased influence as he
says, ” reserving judgments is a matter of infinite hope” (Fitzgerald 6).
I
personally think Nick is a good guy. I like his personality and his state of
mind. It seems to me that he always makes rational decisions, and uses common
sense and morals. Very rarely did he do anything that I thought a bad decision,
and he says a lot of inspiring things. All in all, I would have to say Nick is
my favorite character.
