The falling leaves and the draining of the pool at the end parallel the end of the illusion and the end of Gatsby's life. Everyone seemed to use Gatsby for the lavish things he gave out so I believe that only those who really cared for him will be the ones to remember him and be shocked of his absence. Chapter 8 displays the tragic side of the American dream as Gatsby is gunned down by George Wilson. I think it closely reflects on the views of society at the time and how people always blamed others. The most obvious deaths are the literal deaths of Gatsby and Wilson. This is exemplified by when Myrtle's life was "violently extinguished, knelt in the road and mingled her thick dark blood with the dust" (137).
When their relation became intimate, he still felt unworthy, and with the intimacy, Gatsby found himself wedded, not to Daisy directly, but to the quest to prove himself worthy of her. Nick imagines Gatsby’s final thoughts, and pictures Yes, it was his car, but he was not driving it. Now let's comb through this chapter to tease apart the themes that connect it to the rest of the novel. I agree with you Jordan. Relating these event to a holocaust is Fitzgerald's way of expressing what happened as a purposefully yet tragic event. By the end of this chapter, the rich and the poor are definitely separated - forever, by death. Nick tries to imagine what it must have been like to be Gatsby and know that your dream was lost. After this moment, Nick moves and there is no more Gatsby. I think that Fitzgerald's uses the word "holocaust" to connect with a historical holocaust.
I agree with you, Mackenzie. She wanted to be married. Then Wilson shoots himself. The words, " Wilson's body a little way off in the grass, and the holocaust was complete"(162). ... How is the Great Gatsby a story of the West if it happened in the East? "How could it have mattered then?" It was a horrible death because he was so close to achieving his goal of getting back together with Daisy, but was killed by Wilson before it could happen.
Gatsby asks the groundskeeper not to drain the pool. There are many definitions of "holocaust" and one of them would be killing of innocent people and this was the case. Nick told him that he should go somewhere else for a while in case someone traced his car and he refused. The death of Gatsby ended his love with Daisy. He covered for Daisy and died an innocent man. The holocaust is a huge thing to compare the deaths to... but Gatsby is The Great Gatsby, he is magnificent, and he is killed. Daisy and Tom's life returns to normal, as if unbothered by Gatsby and Myrtle's death. I believe the term "haulocost" was specifically used because of all of the killings in this part of the story. The myth of Gatsby will continue, thanks to Nick who relays the story, but Gatsby's death loudly marks the end … Gatsby symbolizes innocence, and how easily people can make assumptions. I agree with you to a certain extent. But still the idea of unnecessary killing is prevalent and Myrtle and Gatsby didn't have to die. He felt their presence all about the house, pervading the air with the shades and echoes of still vibrant emotions. By using the word holocaust Nick shows the reader how the people that died were not in fact victims of their own doing, but of the circumstances they were placed in. He wishes not to sever ties with them as they are his close friends, however they are forced to be destroyed as nick needs all his anchors to his life in the east gone so he can leave for the west. The term "holocaust" means "mass destruction." I think that the point that Fitzgerald is trying to make with this line is that the only reason that any of these tragedies happened was because of the misconception, and over escalation of the characters' emotions. However, I do not think that things will go back to normal.

Fitzgerald used the word not as a comparison to what had not happen yet but he used it as a fancy vocabulary word to describe what was happening. Nick has a premonition that he wants to warn Gatsby about.
