No More Harkness!! 12/21

Today marked the day that the harkness was finally over. This was not a harkness day but we still continued to talk about the book and all the tragedy in the last two chapters. Some of the topics we talked about were when Nick went to talk to Wolfsheim and asked if he would be attending Gatsby funeral and Wolfsheim says how he will not come because of what seems to be his fear of being recognized for who he really is. another example we went over in class was how there were only two people that came to his funeral, Nick and Gatsby's dad. This almost makes you a tear come to your eye because he is holding a photo of Jay when he was young and keeps calling him Jimmy. This is a very tragic moment because of how high a status gatsby had and now he is dead.
