1 English 1301 DC/English 3AP 2018/19 The Great Gatsby Discussion Questions Please answer the following questions in complete sentences. I expect COMPLETE AND THOUGHTFUL answers for full credit. Pre-Reading 1. Why are we still reading a book written in the 1920s? What makes it relevant and significant? Some believe that it is the quintessential novel of the American canon. Affirm, Counter, or Concede. 2. Some people think that having money leads to happiness. Do you agree? Why or why not? What are the advantages or disadvantages of being wealthy? 3. What is the "American Dream? Where did it originate, and how has it changed over the centuries?
2 4. Have you ever wanted to relive a moment from your past, to redo it? Describe the situation. How and why would you change the past? Chapter 1 1. Nick starts the novel by relaying his father's advice, "Whenever you feel like criticizing anyone, just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had." List Nick's advantages. Does he reserve judgment in the novel? 2. Pay attention to time. What is the day and year during the first scene at Daisy's house? 3. Describe Nick. What facts do you know about him, and what do you infer about him? What kind of a narrator do you think he will be? You will try to determine if he is a reliable narrator. 2 P a g e
3 4. What image does the author use to describe Jordan Baker? What does it mean? How does Nick react to Jordan? 5. What might the green light symbolize? What does the color green often represent? (You will have to complete some research on this one.) Chapter 2 1. Describe the "valley of ashes." What does it look like literally and what does it represent - symbolically? 2. Nothing Fitzgerald uses in his writing is filler or random? What idea is Fitzgerald trying to promote with the Dr. T.J. Eckleburg billboard? 3 P a g e

What does this reveal about him? Describe and Explain. 6. What is going on in the scene at the end of Chapter 2? What significance or relevance might this play on how we trust Nick s ability as a narrator to be truthful about all of the characters? 4 P a g e
5 Chapter 3 1. Pay attention to Nick's judgments. What do they reveal about his character that he does this (especially in relation to his opening comments)? 2. Describe Gatsby the first time Nick sees him. 3. What does Nick think of Gatsby after meeting him? 4. How is Gatsby different from his guests? 5.

6 6. Why does Nick choose to share his thoughts and feelings with Jordan? 7. Nick thinks he's one of the few honest people he knows, why? Can we trust him as a narrator? Chapter 4 1.
