The ever-famous pink suit. In the introduction Tony Tanner writes of how Nick tries to never say a harsh
word about Gatsby. The quote I have chosen shows that Nick is almost arguing in himself, insisting that No, Gatsby is good, despite what it may appear like.
'No - Gatsby turned out alright at the end...'. It feels, as the reader, that Nick wants me to see Gatsby as a good person. As someone that, yes, has flaws, but no, is good. I think Nick is inspiring, in a way, by doing this. He is a prime example to us all, that despite what it may appear like on the outside, there is always some good in there, no matter how deep. Yes, it may cloud his judgement at times, but he is searching, and searching ever so hard, to see the good in someone - namely Gatsby.
