So, we're doing speech things in Lit class and our group got women in The Great Gatsby and I unknowingly chose the hard topic! The woman in white.
I've gotten some ideas already from my teacher, but I seem to stick real close to what he says and I'm struggling to go beyond this. It's just... ech.
Here is what I have to work with:
I see it as a night scene by El Greco: a hundred houses, at once conventional and grotesque, crouching under a sullen, overhanging sky and a lustreless moon. In the foreground four solemn men in dress suits are walking along the sidewalk with a stretcher on which lies a drunken woman in a white evening dress. Her hand, which dangles over the side, sparkles cold with jewels. Gravely the men turn in at a house--the wrong house. But no one knows the woman's name, and no one cares.
So... anyone who has read the book? I just need some pointers and things. X_X
