Nick & Gatsby

I feel like Nick Carroway and Jay Gatsby are similar, even though Nick has nothing, and Gatsby seems to have everything. But I feel like they are similar because the way the author/narrator (Fitzgerald/Nick) describe himself compared to Gatsby makes it seem like their the only two normal people in the entire story.

Gatsby is continually showing surprise for Nick's actions, because their so different from his neighbors. I also think that the reason why they became such good friends is that they have so much in common, they were in the war...and their normal.
