Note about the Secret Gatsby

The beginning of The Great Gatsby was, in my opinion, the most meaningful part.  I enjoyed the mystery of the character.  The image of Gatsby was presented as a man with unimaginable wealth and full of life.  You got the feeling that he had it all , whatever all was, and everyone around him wanted what he had.  The hidden image of what Gatsby was really fighting for all his adult life was a bit shocking.  The personification of him fell into a hundred pieces on the floor once he was brought to the forefront in the story.  The mystery around him was more attractive and inviting than the actual true man.
