Chapter 1 The Great Gatsby

Nick introduced himself as a non judgemental narrator. Then we learnt that he lived next to the great gatsby who admires as he said ¨if personality is an unbroken series of of successful gesture, then there was something then there was something gorgeous about him¨. Then he Nick starts talking about his second cousin once removed Daisy, who is married to Tom buchanans. Then Nick goes over to there house for dinner where he meets Mrs Baker. At the dinner he finds out that Tom is having an affair with another woman in New York. After the awkward dinner Nick then leave to go home.

Daisy: Witty,gay,sad,lovely and passionate. That makes you think that she is not happy with her relationship with tom as if she is the shell of the happy person she was.

Tom: Cruel,arrogant,dominant,gruff and husky. Tom is a douche bag as he has an affair with another person. These words reinforce how i feel about Tom.

Miss Baker: Slender, polite,charming,balancing and small breasted These words make me feel that Miss baker is polite and charming and gracious.

At the start of the of the book you get introduced and Nick and one of the first things he says is that he is non judgemental but then within the first chapter he has judgments about two people tom and gatsby. This makes not  trust him because he is a judgmental person so the story will always be in tinted in nicks eyesight.

  1. Do you think it is Nick’s fault that he cannot reserve judgement? Is this a quality of human nature or nurture?
