Chapter 4: Nick and Gatsby pass a hearse with a dead man in it. Judging from his entourage would you say he was loved or unloved in his life? Why do you think so?

Answer and Explanation:

A dead man passed us in a hearse heaped with blooms, followed by two  carriages with drawn blinds and by more cheerful carriages for  friends. The friends looked out at us with the tragic eyes and short  upper lips of south-eastern Europe, and I was glad that the sight of  Gatsby's splendid car was included in their somber holiday.

The excerpt above was taken from Chapter 4 of "The Great Gatsby", by F. Scott Fitzgerald. From the dead man's entourage, I would say he was indeed loved in his life. There are two carriages for his family and some more for his friends. A first-time reader would not know, but this can be used as a comparison for Gatsby's funeral in the end of the book.

Unlike this man, Gatsby will not have several people attending his wake and burial. No one truly ever loved Gatsby. Many people did use him to have some fun - they attended his grand parties uninvited, always counting on his money and hospitality. But no one, not even Daisy, the love of his life, followed his hearse in carriages, like the dead man above.
