How they quarrel and the different outlook that nick has on things that he has grownup with. As in the book, he visits his cousin who is married to a rich man and joins them for dinner with one of Daisy's friends. What I find so interesting is that Nick isn't so fond of all the rich personas but goes along as a pleasing guest at the mansion. Nick is mainly there to see the riches and fond over them instead of the actual people. None the less he is a gentleman. He describes things with amazement in his tone.  It really shares the different personalities of the characters, with Daisy and Tom as really social and carefree while Nick is kind of reserved. It could be because he lives in West Egg, which is a poor version of East Egg. He might not want to show that social class as a weakness. ]]> 2020-04-16 02:59:02 UTC https://padlet.com/romoat1/4wzs9u10g5u1uaj/wish/509774580
