On our body biography we give a few symbols representing who Tom is.
We use a mirror being his driving force in his life representing pride and that he only out for himself. We put a no vacancy sign where his heart is to show that he truly doesn't have a heart or love for anyone.
Also at his feet representing his foundation and past we put books for Yale college, his polo stick for the sport, and old money to represent where he got his wealth from. Tom is the antagonist in the book. He plays as a barrier between Gatsby’s and Daisy’s love for each other. Fitzgerald is trying teach us that being prideful and deceitful can lead us to some dire situations. Leading up to losing a loved one who you truly care about all
along.
