Gatsby 27-37

Tom Buchanan: unfaithful to wife, obnoxious, drunkard

Mr. Wilson: broke mechanic, has an unfaithful wife

Mrs. Wilson: Tom's mistress, (somewhat of a leech?), money hungry

Eyes. The cover of the book literally has a pair of eyes... Anyway, the symbolism behind it may be about the future or what people see, but don't speak of.

Mrs.Wilson barely acknowledges husband and makes him get furniture, but they leave before they even take a seat. Poor Mr. Wilson :( !

Vocab
transcendent - go above and beyond
contiguous-  sharing a common border

- meets Tom's mistress even though he didn't really want to
- is told by Catherine (Myrtle's sister, P.S. Myrtle is the mistress) that Tom and Myrtle can't stand their spouses
- Daisy doesn't want a divorce since she's "Catholic"
- Nick (who is 2nd cousin's with Daisy) knows Daisy isn't Catholic
