A damnation of the American Dream through the eyes of an unreliable, hard to pin down narrator. Nick is just as much of a mystery as Gatsby, changing his mind about people, judging yet connecting himself to some awful people, including the racist and abusive Tom.
Graphic: Racism and Car accident
Moderate: Animal cruelty, Gun violence, Infidelity, Physical abuse, Sexism, Violence, Antisemitism, and Alcohol
