Great Gatsby #1
Through the first sixty pages in The Great Gatsby I could find several characters that could be labeled as a villian, hero and anti hero.But I believe the best examples for these categories would be Tom as the villian, Nick the hero, and Gatsby as the anti hero. I chose Tom as the villian because when he is first introduced, he gives off the a very rude and egotistical vibe. But one of the main reasons why I chose him, is because he has a lover who presides in New York City and feels no guilt in cheating on her. Many people disagree with this action, making him the villian. I considered Nick to be a hero in many ways, first of people such as Daisy find him very appealing and nice, also he is said to be one of the few honest people whom doesnt judge as much. Many people root for the sweet and innocent person in a book, and I found Nick to be this man, therefore a hero. Finally, I chose Gatsbyu as the Anti hero bacause so far I find him very mysterious and mischevfious, for example; when at his own party, he stayed to himself which isn't typical at a social gathering. I don't find him to have evil intentions, but his ways make me not want to trust him.
