    Symbolism of The Great Gatsby By Michelle McInnes The Eyes of Dr. T.J. Eckleburg are a symbol of karma and overall morality in the eyes of the judgements of a higher power and of Nick‚ who came from a much more wholesome and less distorted part of America. Their meaning for Gatsby is assumed to be his ultimate failure in giving up his self respect and morals for the pursuit of monay and status.

    "The beauty and splendor of Gatsby’s parties masked the innate corruption within the heart of the Roaring Twenties.
