Writing Homework Help

In F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The Great Gatsby, protagonist Jay Gatsby, a “Mr. Nobody from Nowhere,” pursues the American dream. Fitzgerald captures this journey with vivid style and prose illustrating hauntingly powerful images still relevant today.

Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper, using last week’s readings and assignment as a resource, that re-examines the American dream, individualism, and nature, as illustrated in The Great Gatsby.

This paper should:

• Compare the role of the individual and nature in The Great Gatsby to the works attached.
• Compare the tone of The Great Gatsby to the works attached. Does the tone reflect a change in the perspective of the American dream?
• Explain how The Great Gatsby approaches the concept of the American dream.
• Analyze the style, characterization, symbolism, and/or use of any prominent literary devices used in The Great Gatsby and how those elements contribute to the novel’s plot and intended message.
