In The Great Gatsby, The Death of Gatsby should have been different to fit the character preferably. In the book, Gatsby is described and made out to be a mysterious character that wasn't who he said he was. The character development of Gatsby was quite amazing and the way the character, Gatsby, lets out this genuine feeling of disillusionment and the spiralization of a man who just wanted the past to come back was grand. However, there was one trouble with the character Gatsby that should have been fixed, his death.
