gatsby #2

The purpose of mayor wolfsheim is entirely to add to the mysterious nature of Mr. Gatsby. The mayor does this by diplaying to the audience that Gatsby has buisness connections that reach above even some of the upper class in this story and as an audience, up to this point we had been kept in the dark about this.

The history that Gatsby and Daisy shares gives us multiple insights. First it tells us that Tom was not neccesarily Daisy's first choice to marry, and she might be interested in someone else. Like perhaps Gatsby himself. Also, by giving us as an audience an isight to the past of Gatsby relieves some of the suspense and mystery that previously surrounded him.

The rest of the story also gives us insight on Gatsby. When gatsby is invited to join Nick and Daidy for tea his attitude swiftly changes into the demeanor of a child almost. He is rude and imatient with the others and it is honestly embarrassing for him. But, then he recollects his manners and makes up for his foolishness later on.

The overall story of the section is clearly Jay Gatsby, we learn intriguing insights into his previously mysterious life. Including his buisness ventures, which are still unclear, a history with Daisy, and multiple examples of mannerisms that we had yet to see from Gatsby.
