GATSBY NOTES AND THOUGHTS ON CHAPTER 8

The next morning Nick met up with Gatsby. He looked tired. He then let Nick know that he waited until 4:30 am for Daisy to give him the signal that she was okay and that he was okay to go home. This told me that Daisy didn’t care enough to remember that Gatsby was outside waiting for a signal. Nick then told Gatsby that he should go away for a while because his car was most likely going to get traced. Gatsby however didn’t want to leave Daisy behind and wanted to protect her. This goes to show how much Gatsby cares about her, maybe a little too much. The author shows us how Wilson is feeling about all of this and of course he’s not doing well. He figures out that it was Gatsby's car an goes out to try and find Gatsby. When he finally gets to his house he shoots Gatsby and then kills himself.
