BR 2-06: The Great Gatsby

I read this book because I watched the movie of this book in the class. Gatsby is of course “great” I think. I have some reasons to think so and the most important point is to wait favorite girl for a long time. Gatsby and Daisy were lovers but Gatsby went to the war and Daisy couldn’t wait for him. Then she got married with another man who is very rich. In this story, Daisy is said that “idiot and pretty woman”. She symbolizes the age. Anyway, when Gatsby went back from the war, she has already got married. He knows that but he thinks that Daisy doesn’t love her husband. Then Gatsby try to plunder her from her husband.
Gatsby was waiting for her for a long time. That is great to love and wait for a long time. On the other hands, he was having party almost every nights or weekends. I felt that he is playboy. However he is rich, I think he is too much. For me, I can’t trust him.
But I like this story and I have to write report about this movie so I’ll do my best :)
