Write about some of the ways Fitzgerald tells the story in chapter 1 of The Great Gatsby

Fitzgeralds autobiographical first psyche means of telling the bilgewater in a sort that takes the lecturer into his confidence by retelling a recollection of significant events. It is immdeiatly notice open that Fitzgeralds sentence structure is complex and his vocabulary sometimes obscure yet Gatsby, the man who gives this sacred scripture its name was exempt from my reaction Gatsby, who represented every thing I was scornful of.If personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures, then on that point was something gorgeous about him Fitzgerald asserts the mentation that although Nick Caraway is the should fibber of this book, the fabrication is about a much greater man one whom the narrator is habilitate to admire so much that the use of language to see him gives Nick a new view on a set of people he once hated, so much so, he decides to publish a book about him.Fitzgerald introduces Nick just returning to the midwestern United States afterwards the civil wa r, he settles in the west egg that finds himself starting the fib by visiting his cousin Daisy and tom the comforting proximity of millionaires in the much more(prenominal) glamorous east egg, Fitzgerald is by chance emphasising this was the norm for Nick having gr consume up with much(prenominal) people as a child. Fitzgerald begins the story with a generalisation of himself I m tend to reserve all judgements separating himself from the likes of other judgemental upper class characters, which whom be presumptuousness the most attention to.The likes of characters such as Daisy, Tom and Jordan are tending(p) almost choric voices well you ought to see her shes- the characters constantly cutting from each one other off with ongoing information to the story such as rumours hes got some woman in new York the idea of scandal and covered up rumours seems to dominate this chapter, although Jordan has exactly just met Nick, Fitzgerald does not hold back on writing Jordan so she already reveals a huge scandalous piece of gossip emphasising how these characters.Fitzgerald presents women in this chapter in a very unusual way splendidly, luagiduly, their hands set lightly on their hips, the two young women proceeded us out on to a rosy-cheeked coloured porch the imagery of two young women leading them into this heavenly shopping mall emphasises them as delicate and beautiful for a moment the last blitheness fell romantically upon her refulgence face the sensual imagery Tom uses to describe Jordan presents some type of respect Fitzgerald is fitting to see for women, even so it is contrasted to a much lower view of women when Daisy states thats the best thing a woman can be in this world a beautiful fool where she press outes her opinion that a woman can only get by on looks and total ignorance to how a man should care for her. Some readers are irritated by nick caraway as a narrator, what is your view of Nick as a narrator? Fitzgeralds pursuiting and i ntelligent use of such a character is in no way a mistake, he would have been aware of the dangers from such an unusual means of narrating, however it works very well and makes this book the success it is.The use of Nick as more of a spector than an actual narrator involves us as readers and allows us to make up our own minds about the characters rather than having a central character as a narrator who whitethorn be in love with Daisy or hate Tom, whose language would then shape our own opinion of them. Nick is satisfactory to re-call past events in a very serious tone that yet at the same time his sensual and light-headedness description on menial matters reflect pleasure onto the reader I had two hitchhike bowels of champagne, and the scene had changed before my eyes into something significant, elemental and pro install commenting on small humorous parts of the story make the reader more able to relate as in our own lives we would notice such changes after a drink, Fitzgeral d gives nick very historicalistic qualities here which means the story is more lifelike for the reader to enjoy.However, there are some aspects of the story in sensual description where Nick elevates his dramatic and in deepness description that may not be so down to earth, exclusively neither the little engage the reader in the very attractively worded lines. for a moment the last sunshine fell romantically upon her glowing face the way in which women are presented through Nicks eyes gain him a certain amount of respect for him as a narrator which will gain to the readers interest in his own characteristics, he is clearly a very aflame and respectable man in his romantic interests which in many slipway erase from the readers mind any doubts they may of had at the start of his attitude to women when it is told he left a woman female genitals to move to the east egg.It is easy to suggest that without Nicks descriptive detail and constant symbol, the novel would have been a b etter less obscure portrayal of events, however without Nicks ignorance and unfamiliarity to Gatsby at the start, Fitzgerald would have never been able to create this sense of enigma well-nigh him that engages the reader about this unknown mysterious character. He stretched out his arm in a curious way towards the water, and, far as I was from him, I could have sworn he was trembling. Fitzgerald also uses such a character as he is able to connect more with Gatsby upon living in the same less glamorous egg they are in many slipway similar through their views on life, notes and love a realistic friendship. Scott Fitzgerald was interested in many ways to present Gatsby through Nick he stated once how symbolism can produce a kind of magical transformation in which the physical world might, through an act of imagination, come to assume the spirit of ideal.So at the end of the novel Nick no longer looks at the world through symbolism as he remarks he must have looked up at a familiar sky through frightening lease and shivered as he found was grotesque thing a rose is and how raw the sunlight was upon the silence grass Fitzgerald here uses this technique to cut Nicks symbolical language on beautiful things, to mirror the down turn of events and slip away in with the language to reflect the mood of gloom the reader may be feeling, again heightening the readers opinion of Nick, as he is many ways realistic when it comes to the language he uses to express events that arent so glamorous. The use of Nick as a narrator is without a doubt a genius idea from Fitzgerald. He was able to contrast the norm and expected narrator scarce yet at the same time engage the reader with it. The writer is kept realistic, with real romances such as his relationship with Jordan giving him his own story but yet still present Gatsby in the intelligent and beautiful way Fitzgerald intended.
