American Literature Character Sketch-The Great Gatsby-Daisy
Character Sketch – Daisy
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Daisy Buchanan is a beautiful young woman from Louisville. She is
the cousin of the novel’s narrator Nick Carrayway and the love
interest of Jay Gatsby. She is married to an extremely rich and
arrogant man called Tom Buchanan. Tom and Nick are
acquaintances from college.
Daisy-s appearance and the long-lasting impression she left on men
is described through her voice by her cousin Nick.
I looked back at my cousin, who began to ask me questions in her
low, thrilling voice. It was the kind of voice that the ear follows up
and down, as if each speech is an arrangement of notes that will
never be played again
