Imagine being a woman in a relationship where you find out that your significant other has been constantly cheating on you? What would you do? Well most people would say, “I’ll leave him, duh”. However, that’s not what a woman in the early 1900s would say if she were in the same situation. Let’s examine the life of a woman during the Roaring Twenties through the major plot points of a century classic, the Great Gatsby. Through our feminist lens, we must embark on this imperative journey to truly understand how the life of a woman is filled with much internal grief in a society where patriarchy domineers in the face of themes involving unrequited love, tragedy, and betrayal.
