The Great Gatsby by: F. Scott Fitzgerald Post #2
When Nick moved to his house in Long Island, New York, he seemed to buy it on the wrong part of Long Island because his house was pretty small since he had just got there, but everyone's house all around him were huge, over-towering mansions. I believe that Nick is feeling inferior to his neighbors very much. He mentions how he feels like a small bug against the extremely tall buildings. He believes that he can work up to that type of house if he works hard enough at being a bond salesman. Also, he had a couple come over his house and they brought up multiple times about being rich. It agitated and annoyed Nick very much to make him inferior.
