Blog #20: Great Gatsby

The guy who is doing the narration for the story is Nick. Nick seems be an average guy, if he wasn't narrating the story then he wouldn't qualify to be one of the main characters in the Great Gatsby. However, Nick is kind of the main character but he doesn't explain enough about himself or Gatsby.

The author feels that Nick should narrate the entire story because Nick is sort of the observer. Nick describes the scenery, appearances of the characters and the emotions that are going on in a positive or negative tone. Its almost like he is gossiping with the reader, y'know having a one on one conversation about these peoples livelihood.
