1. A newly revised thesis that considers how Fitzgerald uses figurative language to characterize Gatsby at both the beginning and end of the novel.
2. A new body paragraph or two that expands your initial observations on Gatsby as a character.
3. A new conclusion.
Your essays should be ready to turn in at the start of class tomorrow. Please also submit an electronic copy to Turnitin.com by Monday.
