The Great Gatsby --- F. Scott. Fitzgerald

Nick describes his journey back to the West Egg from Daisy and Tom's Home...A worthy mention is our introduction to the advertisement billboard of Dr. T. J. Eckleburg and it's imposing eyes which "brood over the solemn dumping ground." Upon this "ash road" lives Tom Buchanan's mistress...Myrtyle. Myrtyle and her husband live at her husbands place of work...a mechanic's garage.....Tom Buchanan previously made great efforts to get Nick to "see his girl." Wilson is interested in purchasing Toms car....There home is rather drab and does not seem to be fitting to a person as extravagant as Myrtyle...Myrtyle even dresses extravengently in her "home." Myrtlye is a dashing person with noticeable features of which include her partyish clothes and demeanor.She totally ignores her husband,Wilson, upon here meeting with Tom and Nick and walks directly towards Tom in greeting. She also is aggressive over Wilson as we are hinted when she orders him rather rudely to get some chairs for her guests. Tom ar

Gatsby visits Nick in his gorgeous car, this is the first time that Gatsby has called on Nick. His reason for coming is too take Nick and himself out to lunch....Nick is awed by his car's beauty. During this ride, Gatsby informs Nick of his "correct" success story being that he was from a wealthy mid-western family and he inherited a large sum of money. As well he graduated from Oxford. He also traveled the world in style. Thereafter he joined the Army in the Great War and became an honoured soldier.
