In sticking with the overall theme of the unit, we are going to revisit the same ideas that we looked at in Gatsby: hero, anti-hero, and villain. Identify which of the characters you think fit into these roles. If you want to be more specific like - traditional hero, tragic hero, etc. - go right ahead. All of you choices should have justifications and quotational (I just made that word up) proof from the text.
Doing a good job on these will help tremendously when it comes to writing your paper.
And if you start to get down reading about all of this madness, here are some upbeat songs (about craziness) to pick you up.
