reliable character since in the novel it was stated that he reserves all of his judgements that he has towards a person. This leads the reader to believe in everything Nick says in a 3rd person perspective. Also, since nick is part of the middle class he contains no ambition towards the upper and owner classes. Furthermore he serves as a good companion in which people in this case Gatsby could talk honestly to. Overall, through Nick the novel is shown to be a truthful story of his time at West Egg until he returns to the Midwest.
19. Daisy is responsible for Myrtle’s death, since she was the person who was driving Gatsby’s car and did not stop when she hit her even though Gatsby told her to. As well, through Daisy’s accident Gatsby takes the blame leading to his death as well. In addition, almost at the end of the novel when Tom figures about Myrtle’s death he places the blame on Gatsby and makes Daisy seen like the innocent being who would do nothing wrong. Also, she betrays Gatsby by leaving him alone against Tom’s and Wilson’s anger. Lastly, even at Gatsby’s funeral Daisy does not show up since she says that she went on a trip with Tom. Overall, Daisy is responsible for two deaths that should have not happened.
20. Daisy was never worthy of Gatsby. For instance, before Gatsby’s death Daisy never messaged back leaving Gatsby hopelessly alone. Even after his death she did not attend the funeral, since she left on a trip with Tom; ensuring that she didn’t really care about Gatsby. In addition by not attending his funeral Daisy’s shows how she is a selfish person that only cares on the power of a person instead of what they re truly made of. Also, she only cared of being financially stable since Tom always had money and Gatsby did not when they first met. Overall, Daisy is not worthy of Gatsby since she only cares about herself, and allows Gatsby to be blamed for Myrtle’s death even though she committed the deed.
