Dasanific Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Your second choice is not a bad one although I would suggest you to word your RQ well. Nick Carraway's description of women (Daisy, Jordan, Myrtle, Catherine, etc.) certainly varies greatly from his description of the men in the novel (Gastby, Tom, etc.). This has particularly triggered critics to question Nick's sexual orientation. In any case, I am still doubtful about the scope of this RQ but picking The Great Gatsby is an enormous challenge, the book being so loved and popular. I haven't read other books by Fitzgerald although there is plenty to research in The Great Gastby. Good Luck Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
