Certaly they mt have been plex — Fzgerald was famoly sensive about his masculy, and Zelda supposedly once claimed that her hband was a “fairy” who was havg an affair wh Hemgway (there’s no proof of that, though there is that scene A Moveable Feast where Hemgway tak a look at Fzgerald’s, let’s say, manly equipment, and judg to be aquate) one might expect a renunciatn, or a rtoonish portrayal (surely Fz had enough opportuny wh Gatsby’s ragers to throw a few stereotypil gay party boys), but neher of the exist this novel.

Stt Fzgerald's The Great Gatsby was queer, while the morn film versn of him is cidly straight, says Noah Berlatsky The Carraway is the voice and central character of Fzgerald's Gatsby, and for s, punds and scholars asserted he was gay or bisexual, and likely love wh the wealthy and troubled Jay Gatsby. Of urse, the outlook on homosexualy and the rt of the LGBTQ+ muny has changed dramatilly over the past one hundred years. Stt Fzgerald rporat aspects of homosexualy The Great Gatsby through the narrator, Nick Carraway, and his teractns wh other male characters throughout the novel.

NICK CARRAWAY IS GAY AND LOVE WH GATSBY

Specifilly, Nick’s scriptive language rri a homoerotic affect, meang his prence the narrative v, at least, a queer readg of The Great Gatsby. Fzgerald premiers Nick’s homoerotic tone his scriptn of male characters, particularly Tom Buchanan.

” By primarily settg a homoerotic tone for Nick’s scriptn, is natural to assume that this phrase should be an nuendo or phemism. Nick’s observatns of other male characters ntue to harns an air of homoeroti through almost the entirety of The Great Gatsby.

Another blatantly obv scene where Nick’s affect ntribut as an element of the novel’s homoeroti is when he scrib the nductor on the tra.

IS DAVID FZGERALD GAY?

Not only do Nick’s scriptns of other mal the story rry an homoerotic affect, but the juxtaposn of those and his scriptns of female characters further supports Nick’s obv pull towards other mal the story. This tenncy to fd mascule energy women aga prov that Nick’s ra of homoeroti draws him towards masculy.

Yet no other scene between Nick and another character the story is as eludg to Nick’s homosexualy than the famo elevator scene. Like Nick’s scriptn of Tom, there are two ways to read : a simple yet toxited altertn between two grown men or a one-night0stand between two closeted homosexual men. McKee for grabbg the lever is symbolic of how society viewed homosexualy at that time—taboo, rogatory, and unnatural.

For that to happen, the rear mt have prevly picked up on Nick’s homoerotic affect. The elevator scene The Great Gatsby is the qutsential pictn of Nick’s homoerotic affect and his sometim-closeted signs of homosexualy.
