This quote "And so with the sunshine and great bursts of leaves growing on the trees..."(4)points to it being spring, but Daisy says' In two weeks it'll be the longest day in the year."(11) meaning it is summer. Nick describes the weather as a warm windy night(6).-Nick Wilson
Chapter One: (Time)1915-1922 (past) *Nick was graduated in 1915 *He went to East Egg to start the bond business in 1922 *Nick spend two days with Tom (college friend) and Daisy in Chicago
Chapter Two: (Time)1922(past) *Nick and Tom took the train from West Egg to New York City *Mrs. Mckee, Tom Buchanan, Nick, Mrs. Wilson, Mrs. Eberhardt and Catherine (sister of Mrs. Wilson spend the night at Myrtles. They drink alkohol and talk about the relationships in their past.
Chapter 4 - "Then the valley of ashes opened out on both sides of us..." pg 68. meaning that the valley of ashes is not a busy city but more of a rural, less-wealthy area - Dan
Chapter three:(Time)(present) *every time Gatsby gets oranges and lemons *over the weekend he drinks all the juice *One night was Gatsby's Party in the high Gothik library. All the guests, icluding the guests who aren't invited, are well dressed. Gatsby doesn't drink, he just watches the guests. Smetimes he talks with Chicago or Philadelphia (criminal work) PAST: *Nick was in the Ninth machine-gun Battalion
Chapter 2- weather- Nick hints to it being a sunny day while he is in new york with Tom and Mrs. Wilson. "...the apartmen was full of cheerful sun."
Chapter 3-weather- Its another sunny day in chapter 3. "At high tide in the afternoon i watched his guests diving from the tower of his raft, or taking the sun on the hot sand of his beach..."(39) I think fitzgerald will start to have rainy days in the book when things go south for Gatsby, but for now everything is alright, its party time.-Nick Wilson
Chapter four:(Time)(Past) *July 5th, 1922: Two men paid Gatsby the subtle of knowing nothing *At one morning in the end of July at 9 am: Gatsby and Nick had lunch together. (Gatsby told him about his past: He is the son of wealthy people in Middle West (they are all dead now). He was educated at Oxford. He tried to die in the war. He was a first lieutenant. He was a Major.
Chapter four:(Time)(Past) *1919-1922: Rosy Rosenthal was shot at the old Metropole *1919: Meyer Wolfsheim is a gambler, he fixed the Worl's series (he isn't in jail, because he is a smart man) *October 1917: Daisy(18. years old) is the most popular girl in Louisville, she was flirting with Gatsby. Next Autumn she was gay and in June she married Tom Buchanan. He gave her a string of pearls for 350000 dollars. They did a travel for three months, after that she was really mad at him. They went to France for one year.
Chapter 4-weather- in chapter four its sunday morning(61), late July(63) and its probably a perfect sunny day again because Gatsby is in a relativly good mood, and ive noticed the weather is symbolic of Gatsby's emotions.
Chapter 5-weather- Its raining in chapter five(81) and as it pours Gatsby's emotions are down. "He(Gatsby) was pale, and there were dark signs of sleeplessness beneath his eyes." (84) Gatsby is deffinatly in rough shape before he meets daisy he is very out of it. Even when him and dasiy are spending time together he is still not himself(86). Nick steps outside and notices its stoped raining, and when he returns Gatsby is him self again and throught out the chapter Gatsby is in a good mood until the end where him and Daisy dance to a piano song and it starts to rain again symbolizing Gatsby and Daisy's sad years spent apart.-Nick Wilson
Chapter 2 - "this is the valley of ashes - a fantastic farm where ashes grow like wheat..." (23)
