Ironic because Gatsby was guilty of corruption.

As Henry is poor, he fails to see the American dream is always going to be unachievable for the poor. Also, he fails to understand why Gatsby cannot be accepted by the ruling classes.]]> 2021-01-06 10:01:28 UTC https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058821682 https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058822409 repetition of 'my boy' still sees him as how he was before corruption ]]> 2021-01-06 10:01:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058822409 https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058823672 Semantic field of pictures and illusions.

Premodifier “real” suggests he fails to see the falseness of Gatsby’s house as he lacks wealth and breeding ]]> 2021-01-06 10:04:11 UTC https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058826459 https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058827642 "The house, the wealth". These nouns demonstrate that Mr Gatz would be impressed by materialistic possession. Daisy was never impressed because she already had these things and could see that they were merely an imitation. To the lower classes, these things would appear like achieving the American dream. ]]> 2021-01-06 10:04:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058827642 https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058828350 2021-01-06 10:05:19 UTC https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058828350 https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058828889 The premodifier “real” is used ironically because the reader knows that Gatsby’s status and wealth were never accepted as real. The people of East Egg with old money were the only ones with ‘real status and wealth’ this therefore shows the lack of understanding that Gatsby’s father has surrounding the classes and money. Gatsby was not accepted by East Eggers such as Tom for having real status or wealth.]]> 2021-01-06 10:05:38 UTC https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058828889 https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058829559 “Mr caraway said it was true”
Suggests that he cannot see that Nick is lying.

- This implies that the servants belonged to Mr Gatsby so all Gatsby had in the end was possessions. Gatsby formed very few meaningful relationships because the American Upper Classes only want shallow relationships they can benefit from.
- This also shows the honesty and decency of the poor as they take the time to visit Gatsby's funeral even though that is time that they could've spent earning. Those who had the luxury of not needing to constantly work had no excuse not to attend but still didn't attend anyways]]> 2021-01-06 10:08:01 UTC https://padlet.com/nhussey1973/chapter9/wish/1058833342
