So as I'm reading Nick is at the party and he feels very uncomfortable. He feels this way because there are tons of strangers there and as he is waling around all the people are talking about are rumours about Gatsby. It seems like nobody really knows the truth about this guy which is kind of weird to me. Nick is hearing rumours that Gatsby killed someone before and he was a German spy before its just very strange.
I think it is weird how Fitzgerald is explaining Gatsby. I also think that is a very cool way to do it though also. Right now since Nick knows nothing about Gatsby except he throws great parties he has to listen to the rumours to get a feel of Gatsby and the reader also has to get a feel of Gatsby just off of rumours. So its sort of like should I believe this and judge Gatsby or should I just wait to meet him and decide for myself. I think that is a very cool but very strange way to portray Gatsby. I like that idea a lot though so good job Fitzgerald.
