The expression of the American Dream in Fitzgerald’s ‘Great Gatsby’ Essay

(1) F. Scott Fitzgerald, who is the author of the Great Gatsby, still speaks of the American Dream through the use of literary devices and symbols said throughout the book. One literary device that he uses to speak of the American Dream is East Egg and West Egg. The book explains the differences between this two cities. West Egg is where the "new rich" live that are those who have made so much money after World War 1.(4b) Presenting the novel as unusual, it seems like they don't know what to do with all that money that they have. This is a clear view of the heavy amount of materialism which was the result of pursuing the American Dream.
East Egg is totally different from West Egg because those living in East Egg are known of coming from family with money. These people present themselves as to have class, dignity, and manner. which is what lacks in West Egg. The people in west egg are no better than the other people who live in East Egg. In the book Tom and Daisy both have affairs and each one knows or finds out about each other's affair. (5a) Tom has an affair with Myrtle, while daisy started having an affair with Gatsby after they reunited with each other with the help of Nick. (1)Daisy, a girl that kills a woman after leaving with in a hurry, somehow lets Gatsby take the fault for her action. Many of the people who live in the East Egg would join Gatsby at his parties. This novel is symbolic because Fitzburg uses symbols to represent various aspects of the American Dream. (1) Valley of ashes, a place which hate is a huge consequence of the rich people. (5a) When Tom and Daisy break up things, they step back into their money. (6) Making a mess, Daisy and Tom let others take blame for what they did.
A symbol used to picture the American Dream, is the green light at the end of Daisy's and Tom's dock. Its Gatsby's inspiration and goal when he was poor. Daisy could not marry him because he could not offer her the life she was used to, so he worked hard and achieved what was known as the American Dream. (3b) Gatsby surrounded himself with the possessions, yet still thinking this will help him gain Daisy back. (3a) Nick,who is a friend to Daisy and Gatsby, still makes a theory of comparison to a person seeing something new for the first time. Just like Gatsby reached for the green light as if he was trying to reach for it.
(5b) Fitzgerald used many methods to express his view on the "American dream" even though the entire novel is about the American Dream. Last but not least was the way he shows his shows his disappointment with the American Dream. In the book it seems like someone must be born into money in order to have an advantage that others don't.
