The narrator, Nick Caraway, begins the book with his father's advice that says you should not criticize others. Through the eyes of Nick, we know hiscousin, Daisy Buchanan, his aggressive husband, Tom Buchanan and Jordan Baker, who becomes a romantic interest of the narrator (probably because it is the only woman who is not these lures hercousin). While Buchanan live in East Egg, a fashionable town in Long Island, NY in the 1920, Nick lives in West Egg, which is less elite but still elegant and lies across the bay from East Egg . Soon we loveMr. Jay Gatsby, a mysterious rich man and has a huge mansion next to Nick's house and spends time in the afternoon staring at a green light across the bay from your garden.
Tom takes Nick to NewYork to meet his mistress, Myrtle Wilson, who is married, of course (fidelity is rare bird in this novel). Myrtle's husband, George, is a passive man who has a garage and has no idea of therelationship of his wife. Nick is not impressed with Tom. In West Egg, Gatsby has parties every Saturday at everyone can go and get drunk - and try to discover how Mr. Gatsby became so rich. Nick meets and makesfriends (with suspicion) of the mysterious man in one of his lavish parties and also begins to spend time with Jordan, whose cynical pragmatism loves Nick.
