My other premise is ls obv, but no more difficult to argue: Nick is a) gay and b) love wh Gatsby.

So far, Nick’s is exactly the profile of a (closeted) gay young man a proment Middle Wtern fay 1922. Her face was sad and lovely wh bright thgs , bright ey and a bright passnate mouth, but there was an excement her voice that men who had red for her found difficult to fet: a sgg pulsn, a whispered “Listen, ” a promise that she had done gay, excg thgs jt a while sce and that there were gay, excg thgs hoverg the next hour. What difference do make if Nick is gay?

Stt) that he was able to provi so much textual evince that Nick is gay whout nfirmg or drawg undue attentn to .

WHAT IS THE SIGNIFINCE OF NICK BEG GAY THE GREAT GATSBY?

” And that’s why matters that Nick is gay and love wh Gatsby: bee Tom’s asssment is spot-on, but Nick will never adm . Nick Carraway, failed bond trar, unreliable narrator, believer the green light, who knows that gay, excg thgs are no longer hoverg the next hour, and never will aga.

I typed "is nick rraway " to Google, and the first optn to e up was "is nick rraway gay? I don't really see any ditn of Nick beg homosexual, but I'd like to know what other people thk.

If he's not gay, he's highly suggtible (another phemism om the old days.

I thk he's gay cuz he iS obssed wh Gatsby pl the elevator scene and what happens reason I thk he uld be bi is that he's heavily attracted to Jordon.

When I read , I didn't fd any such thg that pots he is gay. There's jt him standg there at the end, mg on the past and the future of New York, when I gus he's supposed to be playg the role of to his beg gay, didn't someone say everybody was?

Nick's "gayns" is a foil for Gatsby and the crowd.

I re-read the scene jt now, but I n't say I see homosexualy here. Whole thg seems very straightforward, and a way, readg sual gay sex is as much a twenty-first century terpolatn to the story as would be readg the whole novel as social mentary about fancial irrponsibily leadg to a market crash.
