Which excerpt from The Great Gatsby is the best example of foreshadowing?
. . . he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way, and, far as I was from him, I could have sworn he was trembling. Involuntarily I glanced seaward — and distinguished nothing except a single green light, minute and far away, that might have been the end of a dock. When I looked once more for Gatsby he had vanished, and I was alone again in the unquiet darkness.
Of course I knew what they were referring to, but I wasn’t even vaguely engaged. The fact that gossip had published the banns was one of the reasons I had come East. You can’t stop going with an old friend on account of rumors, and on the other hand I had no intention of being rumored into marriage.
I said lightly that I had heard nothing at all, and a few minutes later I got up to go home. They came to the door with me and stood side by side in a cheerful square of light. As I started my motor Daisy peremptorily called: “Wait!”
“Her family is one aunt about a thousand years old. Besides, Nick’s going to look after her, aren’t you, Nick? She’s going to spend lots of week-ends out here this summer. I think the home influence will be very good for her.

The conclusion of the first chapter of 'The Great Gatsby' contains the novel's most effective instance of foreshadowing.

  • Gatsby is pictured by Nick standing with his arms extended and "trembling" as he reaches for the green light. By doing this, he implies that Gatsby's search is for something transient.
  • The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald centres on Jay Gatsby, a man whose life revolves around his desire to reunite with Daisy Buchanan, the love he lost five years ago.
  • His journey takes him from destitution to riches, into the arms of his sweetheart, and ultimately to his demise.
  • This story is just as important today as it was when it was written, even if it is a commentary on a different time and set of characters.
  • This story examines topics that are universal: human follies, the futility of social structures, and man's struggle with time and destiny.
