  • How does East Egg reflect the idea of achieving the American Dream through inheritance and privilege rather than hard work?

  • In contrast, how does West Egg  symbolize a different vision of the American Dream—one based on ambition, self-made wealth, and social mobility?

  • What does the Valley of Ashes suggest about the darker side of the American Dream for those who are left behind or exploited in the pursuit of wealth?

  • How does New York City serve as a backdrop for both the allure and the illusion of the American Dream, especially in relation to characters like Tom, Daisy, and Gatsby?

  • If you could switch the characters between these settings (for example, moving Tom to West Egg or Myrtle to East Egg), how would that affect their pursuit of the American Dream, and what might the novel be saying about the limits of achieving it in each setting?
