Gatsby post 3- norberto

Chapter two is a very curious chapter. Nick finds himself in the middle of a situation that involves rotten relationships and very strange people. Like Nick, we are discovering new terrain and we read how filthy and disturbing the valley of ashes is. Noticeably, it is a home to the poor and a contrast to East Egg and West Egg. Tom demonstrates what he feels of his high status by taking away Myrtle from her husband in his own home. We can see how power really marks a boundary between the rich and poor, and how this makes minorities in society.
