As exemplified throughout fitzgerald's classic, the great gatsby, people and situations are not always what they seem. perhaps no other character personifies this assertion better than the quintessential jay gatsby, a man with many secrets and an insatiably dangerous gift of hope. then there are daisy and tom buchanan, the wealthy couple who appear to have it all, yet still manage to commit adultery in seemingly broad daylight. in fact, the characters who—financially and culturally—should have reveled in the greatest depths of happiness, were actually the most miserable. ironically, it is our modestly endowed and unwed narrator who is the only character in the book who appears to possess any shred of contentment with his present lot in life.
