The setting of a story not only includes the material, physical settings, but the context and the ‘mental’ settings of the character are important as well. Ann is still a young woman compared to John, “eager for excitement and distractions” (401) and finds her relationship with her husband monotonous; to the point where they don’t even talk to each other as she sees no point in “talk[ing] with a man who never talked” (399). In fact, Ann found most of her neighbours the same way; finding no reason to talk about crops, cattle and other neighbours with them. Ann was alone, with no one to bring any interest to her life with the exception of Steven. When Steven came over during the storm, she “felt eager” and “challenged” (403) for the first time in a while; she even changed into a dress and did her hair to impress him.

Her existence does not depend on her illusions, so even if she is forced to face reality, she does not have much to lose and can escape without harm. Daisy pretends that she is pure and carefree and convivial, symbolized by her fluttering white dresses, but this is clearly not true. She is cognizant of the world and her place in society, as she puts it, “the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool” (17). Daisy does not challenge this view and even chooses to show others that she embodies this persona, usually acting innocent when confronting hard questions about love and betrayal. Even when the love of Gatsby forces her to question the illusions that are part of her life, such as when she calls Tom “revolting”, she does not face any repercussions because she is protected by her status (131).
