From the Paper:

"Before one can begin to understand the relationship between Nick and Jay one must have an understanding on the plot of the story itself. The Great Gatsby is a story about Jay Gatsby still being in love with Daisy Buchanan. He does everything he can to try and win her back and she is so selfish and absorbed that she allows him to make the effort, knowing she is not going to leave her husband Tom. Tom has an affair and Daisy kills the mistress with Gatsby's car. In the end Gatsby is still doing anything he can for Daisy because he takes the blame for driving the car. The mistress's husband comes to Gatsby's house and kills Gatsby. The entire story is told from the narration of Nick Carraway who has moved to Long Island to become a bonds worker. He is the cousin of Daisy Buchanan."
