The paper discusses the dual roles Nick Carraway plays in The Great Gatsby,as both a narrator and a moral arbiter.By successfully employing this functioning character,Scott Fitzgerald depicts the flaws of Gatsbys dream and the corruption of materialism.The paper asserts that as story teller and moral judge,Nick has an irreplaceable place in the novel—he is indispensable to the progression of the story as well as to the in depth exposure of the American dream.
