Complications

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald is becoming more interesting.  In the last section I have read, Tom and Daisy attend one of Gatsby's parties, and the plot becomes more complicated.  Nick describes the party as "oppressive" and "unpleasant," partly because of Tom's presence.  Tom even starts to question Gatsby's identity during the party and forms the impression that he is a bottlegger.  I think it is also because Gatsby attempts to flaunt his wealth for Daisy.  Surprisingly, Daisy isn't impressed.  Nick says: "I knew that for the half-hour she'd been alone with Gatsby she wasn't having a good time (105)."  Gatsby might have to change his ways if he wants her to leave Tom.  After the party, Gatsby said "And she doesn't understand... She used to be more able to understand (109)."  Will things work out between Daisy and Gatsby.   Things have changed since the last time they saw each other.  It might be that Lily isn't as interested in him now.  Now he wants her to tell Tom that she never loved him.  Will she do this, and if she does, how will he react?  No matter what, Gatsby will continue to be in love with her, and if he can't marry her in the end, he will be absolutely ruined.
