Before reading the novel, understand that the narrator describes a variety of people, places, and situations using the word "grey." As you read the novel, write down all of the instances in which he uses the word grey. At the end of the novel, explain the symbolic significance of the use of the color grey.
Carraway describes his house and those of his very rich neighbors. Draw a New Yorker type cartoon cover that depicts Carraway's house sandwiched between the two mansions.
Explain the satire in the narrator's comment about when Tom and Daisy "drifted here and there unrestfully wherever people played polo and were rich together."
When Carraway points out his criticism of Daisy in chapter 1, do you think he is deviating from his father's advice of not passing judgments? Do you think he is justified because Tom and Daisy are more fortunate than him or is it just a human trait that can't be subdued so easily?
In chapter 1, Carraway says the East Egg is very different from the West Egg. He says that in the West "an evening was hurried from phase to phase toward its close in a continually disappointed anticipation or else in sheer nervous dread of the moment itself." Would you say your life is more like that in the East Egg or in the West Egg? Explain.
What are your thoughts and feelings about Daisy's attitude toward women when she says, "That's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool"? Why do you think she feels that way?
Analyze Tom's character and make sure to discuss his attitude towards social status and towards women.
Describe the preparation that goes into having a party at the Gatsby home. What types of entertainment and indulgences does Gatsby have for his guests?
Explain what Jordan means when she says, "And I like large parties. They're so intimate. At small parties there isn't any privacy." What does this reveal about her character?
At the end of chapter 3, the narrator says, "I am one of the few honest people that I have ever known." Do you agree with his self-assessment? Why or why not?
