Character Analysis Nick has a moral sense that distinguishes him from other characters in the book, but his beliefs make him an unreliable narrator for the story. In The Great Gatsby, he alone is disgusted by the death of Myrtle and Gatsby. He finds himself unable to forgive the Buchanans after he finds out the reason for Gatsby’s death “I couldn’t forgive him or like him…They were careless people, Tom and Daisy – they smashed up things and creatures…and let other people clean up the mess they had made…” (170). This shows that Nick has morals that the other characters don’t have – Tom and Daisy didn’t have any qualms about committing murder as long as it was justified for them. On the other hand, Nick’s feelings
