Analysis

The main theme in chapter nine was the weathys courruption of morals. The weathy only cared about themselves. They attended all of gatsbys parties but they didt attend his funeral. The weathy people in the east were so morally corrupt that Nick moves back west. The corruption of morals is not only a main theme in this chapter but in the whole book. Nick judged all of the characters in the book and he felt like the weathy people were moraly corupt. Daisy was moraly corupt she was very close to Gatsby and she didt even recognize his death she didt pay any kind of respects. The weathy people in this novel seem to have there priorities very mixed up.
