Gatsby As A Romantic Parties, wealth, and status, are the three things that made up the 1920s. Authors wrote about the American Dream a lot in this decade and a huge part of the American Dream was love. Every guy dreamed of having the perfect wife and every woman wanted the perfect husband.

In the 1920s more and more people moved from their…

One of the first things that he does is pass on some advice that his father gave him which is “Whenever you feel like criticizing anyone, just remember that all the people in this would haven 't had the advantages that you 've had”, as a result of this he is nonjudgemental. I like this quote because it reminds me that whenever I want to talk bad about…
