George Wilson goes off the deep end. After finding out that his wife died, George Wilson goes crazy and kills Gatsby. George asks Tom who the owner of the car was, that ran over Myrtle. Since it was Gatsby's car, George assumes that it was Gatsby who has been going behind George's back to be with Myrtle. Tom really got himself out of a pickle with that one. Gatsby, who seems to finally be coming to his senses, is relaxing in his pool for the first time. Finally enjoying himself and living his own life. However just as things seem to be good they go terribly wrong and George kills Gatsby and then immediately kills himself. This is something i certainly did not see coming. The title character of the book dies. Gatsby died empty handed. He didn;t get married to Daisy like he thought he would. Although Gatsby died with his piece of mind that he lost right before he became Jay Gatsby.

  1. Its nice to see the point of view from wilson. it shows how people look at the rich class from the outside looking in. Tom is a coward and an exuse for a man but at the same time Wilson is a hard working man who deserves a good life .Wilsons life is unfare and i think this was the last straw for wilson.It just set him off
