'The Great Gatsby: Chapter 7 Analysis\r'
'The communication of this invitation finished Gatsby suggests initi completelyy to break away that ââ¬Ësomething was up. The air tensity is increased by Fitzgeralds use of inadequate fallacy: the weather is ââ¬Å" impatient!ââ¬Â¦Hot!ââ¬Â¦Hot!ââ¬Â so that it, like the cash machine in the chapter ââ¬Ëhovered on the edge of combustion.\r\nIt is nigh the last day of summer, appropriately. There is a feeling that the last chance for Gatsby; that the darker age of autumn and winter are on their way; that things are drawing to a close with the demise of the summer.\r\nThe telephone forecast received by tom at luncheon (from Mrs.Wilson) adds to the air of expectancy and tension. It is besides the first time the reader has seen all of the main characters of the play gathered together, adding to the composition that the climax is due soon. Daisy and\r\nJordans skin is powder over, suggesting a papering over of cracks, and the faithlessness of the situation.\r\nNick contemplates ââ¬Ëthe scalloped ocean and the abound blessed isles, near palpably desiring an escape.\r\nDaisys public kissing of Gatsby, suggests that she is ready to make the blood public, but her ââ¬Ëclogging on the fireplace suggests an roughly hysterical desperation. Tom notes the change in the footing of their relationship, as Daisy exchanges apparently deceitful comments that betray their intimacy : ââ¬Å"you always envision so coolââ¬Â. His response to this is an assay to shield Daisy from Gatsby, by trying to work her travel in his car to new York. He clearly recognises that ââ¬Ëshe had told him that she loved him.\r\nDaisys ââ¬Ëpresentation of her child, Pammy, to Gatsby and the assembled smart set has striking effect upon Gatsby; she is concrete conclusion of the marriage between Tom and Daisy, inevitable evidence that Daisy has shared the last 5 years of her life with someone else.\r\nTom agrees to Daisys suggestion that they go to town as a welcome distraction from the almost surreal scene that appears to be create from raw stuff at the house. As the girls prepare for the outing, Nick notes ââ¬Ëthe moon hovered already in the Hesperian sky, suggesting that time is again running out.\r\nAs Tom gets whiskey, Fitzgerald has Gatsby explain the irresistible lure of Daisys voice: ââ¬Å"her voice is full of bullionââ¬Â, This clarifies the whole moral stance of the characters in the text: drawn to the gold in her sirens song. Nick thinks of her at this moment as ââ¬Â high in a flannel palace the kings daughter, the golden girlââ¬Â in a vision that simultaneously draws together the multiple images of silver, gold and white that Fitzgerald has utilize throughout the text to suggest money and wealth.\r\nThe drive to town provides another luck for Gatsby and Daisy to be alone together as Daisy evades Toms suggestion that he drive her ââ¬Ëin this circus wagon â⬠Gatsbys car. This description clearly demons trates the patronage of the patrician for the vulgar display of wealth by Gatsby, the parvenu.\r\n'
