Ops I did it again. The main character dies again in the end of the book. After Gatsby’s death Nick takes care of his funeral. Nick continues to be Gatsby’s leaning post even after death. Finally in the end of the book you learn Gatsby actually has a father. It was not until his father was introduced as Mr. Gatz did I realize that in the earlier story about Gatsby helping a sailor from not crash his yacht Gatsby was the grungy character on the beach. The book that Mr. Gatz shows Nick reveals how meticulous Gatsby was from the beginning of his life. “They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated” (Fitzgerald 187). This statement reveals how connected Tom and Daisy were. Although daisy may hove loved Gatsby her need for luxury seemed more powerful because she did not show up to his funeral. Daisy seems to be successful at living a rich life when Lily Bart was not.
