GATSBY CHAPTER 4

1) What "truth" does Gatsby tell Nick in this chapter

What Gatsby tell Nick is about where he grew up and his past life and what he has done and the way how he got his fortune. However he also left out some stuff which made it sound suspicious. Also to clear out the rumors that are said about him and to let him know who he really is and not to thing bad about him. So he doesn't sound believable because he left out somethings and went through fast.


2.)What "truth" does Jordan tell Nick?  Do you believe either one?  Why/why not?
The Truth that Jordan tell Nick is the conservation that her and Gatsby had during the party. It was that Gatsby likes Daisy and wants to get in touch with her again. Since Gatsby and Daisy fell in love with each other before but end up with Tom after Gatsby left for the war. However Daisy stays loyal even though Tom hasn't. However it is known that Jordan cheats and is dishonest so it hard to believe her, but then again it about her friend so I don't think she would be that mean with her friend. So i would believe Jordan than Gatsby.
