We all know that Jay Gatsby and the Buchanans are important, but Nick Carraway, the narrator of 'The Great Gatsby', holds the key to a lot of insights into all the characters in the novel. In this video, I discuss why Nick is a likeable narrator despite his unreliable narration. Detailed analysis of quotations, stylistic and narrative techniques from throughout the novel.

this was so helpful!!! I really wanted to learn more about narration to apply it to essays and i cant' wait to try it out. Do you have any other videos planned for Gatsby, ahead of the alevel exams?

@JenChan 2 месяца назад

Not ahead of, but definitely open to creating more Gatsby content in the next year, if you have any topics to recommend!

Thank you so much for posting these amazing videos, but could you do a series on analysing the characters/themes in Lord of the flies?it would be really helpful as there isnt many youtube videos about it. Ive watched the example essay video and it was awesome! Thank you

Thank you for the lovely feedback - I appreciate it! Have you seen my other LOTF close reading video where I analyse the opening paragraphs of the novel? (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nNrAEP_u17U.html) I will probably get round to doing more LOTF videos at some point this year, yes, so stay tuned / subscribe if you haven't already! Are there any skills / general lit-related topics you'd like to see videos on? It'd be easier for me to work on those because more people can benefit from them :)

@@JenChan thank you, could you make videos of 40/40 creative writting stories for any exam board, because i do wjec and most people do aqa and due to some differences im unable to find many videos on this. thanks

I really appreciate these videos! I'm currently doing love through the Ages poetry with the great Gatsby do u plan on doing poetry with this prose? I'd be glad to see if you do these videos are very helpful. :)

What are some the poets you're studying for Love Through the Ages (Keats...?) I have a long pipeline to get through right now ahead of this year's exams, but if you join my Membership Program (see 'Join' under my videos) I can prioritise your requests! :)

@Pyrax0x Год назад

Why does Gatsby turn out alright in the end?

@JaneDoe-bg9js Год назад

I think people also forget the fact that in the beginning of the story, Nick is writing this account of his life, while he is in rehab for alcohol addiction…
