Researcher Chapters 1-2

Several connections I have made between this reading and my own experiences, the wider world, and other texts or authors:-This book, as you guys are aware of, exemplifies the Great Depression era. The era where in which America fell into a rough down fall that marked history.
-East and West Egg: are two distinct locations where in which are catagorized as different, opposite, and contrasting. They can relate to gangs, water and oil, and yin yang. What all of these examples have in common is that they can not get along with eachother and always have a conflict between one another
-This novel also opens up a different point of view towards the roaring 1920s, the Great Depression. On the contrary, the charcters in this novel are doing the complete opposite from what is expected from the citizens during this era. Fitzgerald, can relate to the author Zin, this author explains history from his paradigm, and perspective, with out the intention to conceal the reality
