Chapter 3

The picture to the right is an example off a character that we get introduced to us in chapter 3. Nick and Daisy find him in Gatsby's library amazed by all of his" real" books. Nick then calls him owl eyes. This is significant because this shows that names are not important to other people. It also, shows that they are too elf absorbed as well. Even though Nick refers to this man in the library there are other characters as well that related to other animals as well. Such as people's last names.

The significance of chapter 3 are several different ideas the first idea has to do with falseness and the second has to do with peoples names. At Gatsby's Party we are introduced to a character named owl eyes. Nick and Jordan find him in the library looking at all of the books and he just taken back to find out that the books were actually real. The reason why this is an example of falseness is because a lot of "rich people" have book case after book case of fake books, but owl eyes finds out hat Gatsby does in fact have "real" books. Another reason why this is an example of falseness is because a lot of the people tend to act rich and want to just live the rich life. So in order to do the they have "fake" books. Owl Eyes's name is also significant is because in the book names aren't important because people don't take the time to learn anybodies else name because they only care about themselves and don't think that anyone elses names are important.

"On week-ends his Rolls-Royce became an omnibus, bearing parties.."(pg.39). Gatsby having a Rolls-Royce is significant because its a sign of wealth.

"There's something funny about a they'll do a thing like that....He doesn't want any trouble with anybody" (pg. 43). This is significant because there are a lot of rumors about Gatsby, and the women think that he got her a new gown so he wont have any problems but in fact he dot her a new one because she tore it at his party and he was being a gentlemen. It's also another example of his having money to do whatever he wants with it.

"Absolutely real-have real pages and everything. I thought they'd be a nice durable cardboard" (pg.45). This is significant with the idea of falseness, because rich or wealthy people tend to have fake books just to make it seem like they're living the high life but in fact they're really not.

"he's just a man named Gatsby" (pg. 48). This also goes along with the idea of falseness. The only one at the party who actually cares to see and talk to Gatsby is Nick. this an example of falseness because no one really cares about him they just pretend to like him so they can go to his parties and mingle with other people at the party; which in fact they don't care about those people either, it's just so they can boost their social status.
