Gatsby_and_the_Frozen_Moment

Gatsby and the Frozen Moment In today’s society, it is very easy to look around and see many people who live in their past. Walking down a street, one can still watch cars pass by with peace signs and equal rights slogans or hear blasting disco music from the 70’s. However, although the people in these cars enjoy the culture of the past, they know that it is behind them and can never fully be revived. They know that no matter how much they want the 60’s or the 70’s back, it can never happen, because times have changed. Unfortunately, Gatsby, in the book that bears his name, believed that despite all of the time that had passed and things that had occurred during his five years absence from Daisy, all could be revived. Therefore, he set out to reclaim his love, Daisy, and continue his life, as it had been in the past, unconcerned by all of the changes that had transpired. When Gatsby returned from his service in the armed forces, he embarked on a journey to reclaim his lost sweetheart, Daisy. He found her living in East Egg, married to a man named Tom Buchanan.
