where i come from - elizabeth brewster Discuss the way brewster uses language to convey her ideas about the link between identity and place.

I have found one story from each country

Where Is Gatsby? By: Austin Book 5/6/13 1st Hour Last week‚ I attended one of Jay Gatsby’s lavish parties. It was almost exactly like I imagined it. The raucous women‚ the greedy guests‚ the whiskey‚ the fashion – it was quite the experience. I never received an invitation‚ but no one truly appeared to have one either.
