In my version of the modern day Gatsby, is very different from what the novel is. I personally think Gatsby would be living in this modern day mansion with huge windows which in a way would reflect his ego if you think about it. These huge glass windows in a way signifies his wealth and can show his flashy possessions in his house. I imagine his parties would be flashing lights that you can see threw his windows.
In my current day research I’m doing it over social class in the great Gatsby. I think this house is the perfect reason Tom would continue to hate Gatsby and why Daisy would never get with him. Daisy would hate seeing this super modern home, seeing Gatsby in a way, trashy if you think about it. I think the modern Gatsby would struggle even more to get along with old money people than he did in his times. I think even his clothes would reflect why they would hate him I can see him wearing designer reflecting the logo over and over again while Tom and Daisy would wear sleek designers that are being super flashy with the logos. One thing I still haven’t considered is location like I imagine Gatsby living in Los Angeles while Tom would be like in the Hamptons or somewhere else known more for their money. I think the modern day Gatsby in my head still needs a little more thought but can imagine that their social class will be very complicated for them.
