The Great Gastby : Conclusion
As the story closes, Fitzgerald describes the house of Gatsby years later. He tells of how the house is covered in green, a reminder of Gatsby. He then tells the reader his last paragragh which is in my opinion very insightful, "Gastby believed in the green lights, the orgastiuc future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but thats no matter -tommorrow we will run faster, stretch our arms farther.....And one fine morning----So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaseless into the past." This paragraph tells of how Gatsby optimistically dwells on the future as everyone else dwells on the past, endlessly, without purpose.
