Beautiful, you captured Nick very well.

Beautiful.

"He looked ever across the Sound, always to that sacred, hidden valley that was marked by an emerald gem for the world to see.

There, within the chrysalis of Old Wealth, lie his Daisy, the graceful and distant flower that ever seemed to bend towards the sun..."

My favorite line. It's just so very Fitzgeraldish! Thank you so much for writing this- you've done a wonderful job describing Gatsby and Daisy.

This is very good.

I enjoyed reading your story. I'm studying the Great Gatsby now, so its an insight for me. thanks

I like it!

I especially liked the bits that were direct references to the book (like slighty-changed-quotes and stuff), and I LOVED the last line! :)

Another Great Gatsby fan! Wow! This was a good short fic, although I did not like the way you broke it up. Too choppy. A nice extension of what is already in the book with the 'Was it all a dream stuff', but you don't need to reiterate what is already there. We know who the characters are ). Overall good, though.

"even in a dream...you cannot repeat the past." that really summurized Gatsby, though he never would beleive in that truth...for Daisy's sake. Even she understood this, but enjoyed one last time with Gatsby, as if to say goodbye and to be sure she had no regrets, and let's face it: To piss off Tom too, well he started it by screwing around first...not to justify her actions ...boy did I shoot off into left feild on this...!

This really does summerize what Nick must feel, so much happened that will change him for the rest of his life in so little time... you put it perfectly.
