Nick is a silent observer‚ the readers’ eyes‚ ears‚ and processor of the raw events that he is documenting. Therefore as all of the information the reader receives is filtered through one brain‚ the reliability of Nick as a narrator is naturally brought into question as one progresses through the novel. To understand Nick Carraway as a narrator one must first understand Nick Carraway as

    Is Nick Carraway a reliable narrator? Is Nick Carraway a reliable narrator for the story of Jay Gatsby? I don’t believe he is.
