This scene showcases the brass color scheme of Gatsby's bar room, as well as the drinks set up on the tables. “In the main hall a bar with real brass rail was set up, and stocked with gins and liquors and with cordials so long forgotten that most of his female guests were too young to know one from another” (Fitzgerald 34).
Welcome to my bar! You may have heard the rumors surrounding me bootlegging alcohol, but you'll be upset to realize that they are all grape juice! All my guests believe that they are getting drunk off the drinks, but it's all just a placebo effect. I would never break the law!
This is my garden where I host my parties! I know about the rumors of me burying my guests here, but those are all false! I just love planting potatoes- which is the reason why most of the soil have digging marks on them.
This scene showcases the lights spread across Gatsby's garden, as well as the catering provided for the guests. “At least once a fortnight a corps of caterers came down with several hundred feet of canvas and enough colored lights to make a Christmas tree of Gatsby’s enormous garden" (Fitzgerald 33-34).
This scene showcases Gatsby's massive wood-based library. “On a chance we tried an important-looking door, and walked into a high Gothic library, paneled with carved English oak, and probably transported complete from some ruin overseas” (Fitzgerald 38).
Welcome to my library! You may have heard rumors of me being a spy who keeps his confidential cases in the library.. In reality I inherited all these books from my father, who was a book-crazed English teacher!
