Exploring Nick Carraway: The Observer in "The Great Gatsby"

This overview delves into the character of Nick Carraway from F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby." As an honest and observant figure, Nick offers a unique perspective on the extravagance and moral decay of the Jazz Age society. He is torn between admiration for Gatsby's idealism and disillusionment with the people around him, particularly regarding Daisy and Jordan. Born in Minnesota and educated at Yale, Nick embodies the role of a reliable narrator who reveals the complexities of wealth, ambition, and love in 1920s America.
