I'm glad Anthony agrees with me. But we all know minds like "ours" think alike. Haha. I wonder if anyone will get that...=)
I agree, the symbol of eyes in this book are a huge motif. For instance, Dr. Eckleberg's eyes represent many things. They may show how American society is looked upon as a wasteland, or how it is percieved as meaningless. They may sound similar but are actually two different ideas.
As to who is the most immoral-well, they all are.
Gatsby-he continues to live in the past and believes that whatever happened with Daisy can happen again. In reality, the social postion he achieved was only for what he thought he needed to get to win Daisy back. Gatsby is deeply flawed and lives far from reality.
Daisy-Yeah, she was in love with Gatsby but married Tom. Maybe to meet her elders expectations, perhaps? Or maybe because lust drew her to Tom. This woman is obviously immoral because she uses superficialty to cover the pain she suffers from Tom's adulter habits. She cheats on Tom with Gatsby, and doesn't even come to Gatsby's funeral.
Myrtal- She's a nobody and is only attracted to wealth.
Tom-is was common for men to have mistresses back then and that's what he does. He does what deems him "manly." But then when he finds out Daisy is having an affair he moves her. Karma has already hit this book.
Hmm...I wonder if I spoiled anything in the book for anybody. Oh well! =)
