The Great Gatsby Talk & Tour Part II: Beneath the Glamour

Apr16

Glamour, glitter, and the allure of the American Dream dominate The Great Gatsby while a harsher reality exists in the shadows. The second part in our Gatsby talk and tour series takes a closer look at the lives of George and Myrtle Wilson, the servants of East and West Egg, and the Valley of Ashes. We will explore how Fitzgerald portrays the lower classes through the lens of the privileged Nick Carraway and how his personal biases impact the narrative. Join us at Hempstead House for a rare tour of the service areas and a thought-provoking discussion on invisible labor, exploitation, and the human cost of a society obsessed with wealth and status.
