The Great Gatsby
By F. ...
• The first sentence works to display the degree of Gatsby’s fabulous wealth, in that he can afford a “whole pit full” of musicians. ... Out of the corner of his eye Gatsby saw that the blocks of the sidewalk really formed a ladder and mounted to a secret place above the trees- he could climb to it, if he climbed alone, and once there he could suck on the pap of life, gulp down the incomparable milk of wonder.
