While volumes of criticism and book reviews fill library shelves on The Great Gatsby, nowhere have I read any allusions to the fact that the key players in the story are of low morals and intelligence—or to be charitable: mediocre.
Daisy Buchanan is weak and of low moral standards, yet nowhere do I see that this character is "slow." Yet there's abundant evidence that the narrator intended to show her—by her own actions, assertions, and in dialogue—hat she was of substandard intelligence.
Although the underlying theme throughout the novel is about the broken romance between Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan, a subtheme is a bout closeted gay life. This may be farfetched, but many instances in the book support this claim.
