The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald maintains its ability to unleash bits of information. Earlier in my blogs, I decided to believe that Gatsby was the one who left the relationship between himself and Daisy. However, my prediction was wrong.
"She wanted her life shaped now, immediately-and the decision must be made by some force-of love, of money, of unquestionable practicality-that was close at hand.
That force took shape in the middle of the spring with the arrival of Tom Buchanan." (Fitzgerald, pg151).
This means that it was Daisy who ended their relationship. Daisy was the one who wanted the wealth and the life. She was just using Tom to get it. Daisy may have really loved Gatsby, but her impatience killed Gatsby's dream and love. This makes me question Daisy's whole character trait.
AND THEN....there was ANOTHER murder. It seems as though it was Gatsby who killed Wilson! This doesn't make any sense to me. Why would he kill Wilson? He wasn't having an affair with Myrtle, Tom Buchanan was. With all of these loop holes and plot twists, I am forever confused.
