He did not just die... I can say that I'm fairly upset about that! This deranged man just comes in and shoots Gatsby!?! Okay we are going to restart and talk about the beginning of chapter 8 here. Chapter eight of Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby is another chapter that does not initially focus on the "now" and happening. It starts out analyzing how Gatsby and Daisy first fell in love and got to know each other. It also shows how they became separate and distant from each other. I feel like this chapter really shows the importance that wealth played and continued to play in Gatsby's and Daisy's life. Gatsby stated that his main goal was to attain wealth and power and as we see after he loses his love, he thinks the world is coming to and end. It almost seems like he is just straight up giving up on his search for wealth.
"You’re worth the whole damn bunch put together.(Fitzgerald,154)" I also feel like this shows that Nick, even though he didn't really like him much, had a general respect for Gatsby.
