the practical thing was to find rooms in the city but it was a warm season and i had just left a country of wide lawns and friendly trees, so when a young man at the office suggested that we take a house together in a commuting town it sounded like a great idea. he found the house, a weather beaten cardboard bungalow at eighty a month, but at the last minute the firm ordered him to washington and i went the great gatsby out to the country alone. i had a dog, at least i had him for a few days until he ran away, and an old dodge and a finnish woman who made my bed and cooked breakfast and muttered finnish wisdom to herself over the electric stove.
