>Spineless protagonist spends the summer with rich retards

Taking the bait, but the novel is not about liking the characters. It's about giving a portrait of the American Dream: its lure and decadence as well as its tragedy and shortcomings.

>>8656794
Is the American dream about working in organized crime in order to fulfill the obsession of stealing another man's wife? Cause if not I don't think it's 100% applicable.

Main theme: cuck/ cuck theory
Secondary themes: desire , wealth , obtainment.
Laced with: romance , betrayal , fetish and money

it's about Gatsby and a popular idea of the American dream. what it is and how it fails to make Gatsby and the other characters with money happy. it's about love and chasing the past. it's about terrible reasons to want to make your fantasies real. it's about a lot of things.

>Spineless protagonist can't kill his uncle
Is this really the best English literature can produce?

>Her face was sad and lovely with bright things in it, bright eyes and a bright passionate mouth, but there was an excitement in her voice that men who had cared for her found difficult to forget: a singing compulsion, a whispered “Listen,” a promise that she had done gay, exciting things just a while since and that there were gay, exciting things hovering in the next hour.

>Did you even read the book?
The main idea of the book is how our pasts selves define our present selves. All the characters in the story are either running away or towards their pasts in search of solace or happiness. It was a frank capture what live was like in the 1920s for both the haves and have nots.
