The narrators name is Nick Carraway. Nick goes to New York to work in the bond business. He rents a house on a part of Long Island called West Egg. He has a cousin named Daisy who lives in East Egg and he goes to have dinner with her and her husband one day. Thats where we meet Tom. Tom doesnt seem like a friendly person and he talks about a book called The Rise Of The Coloured Empires and he starts talking about racist things.
Their dinner is interrupted when the phone rings and Tom goes to answer with Daisy following behind. Nick is unaware of what is happening untill he is informed that the person calling was Toms other girlfriend and for some reason that caught my attention.
