Gatsby

Gatsby devoted his life to love, but he was as light as a feather in the hearts of those he loved. The first sentence of the novel, whenever you want to criticize someone, remember that not everyone in this world has had the advantages you have. Even though reality had tortured him to the point of ruin, he would not easily give up on the ideal world in his heart. He dared not tell himself that Daisy had changed, and Daisy's tears revealed not only nostalgia but also money. However, Gatsby loved Daisy too much and waited for her phone call for five years until death, hoping that Daisy could leave this greedy place with him. But he could not imagine that Daisy didn't love anyone at this time, he only loved himself. At that time, American society was heavily stratified, and even if the lower class worked hard, it was difficult for them to squeeze into the upper class. Although Gatsby used his wealth to change his appearance and behave like an upper class person, his background as a lower class person could not hide from the eyes of those upper class people, which is also the reason why Gatsby is great. Because he can strive to achieve his dreams. After becoming a millionaire, he still held onto his initial dream and even sacrificed his life for it. But seeking love before making a living, loving others before oneself, and sacrificing one's life for personal dreams, this price is somewhat too heavy.
