Answer:
In "The Great Gatsby," the narrator, Nick Carraway, describes his house as modest and small compared to the grand mansions of the wealthy on Long Island.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here are a few quotes that illustrate how he describes his house:
1. "The house was small, with peeling white paint, and it had an air of being strangled by the vines that had overgrown it on all sides" (Chapter 1).
2l "I lived at West Egg, the - well, the less fashionable of the two, though this is a most superficial tag to express the bizarre and not a little sinister contrast between them. . . My house was at the very tip of the egg, only fifty yards from the Sound, and squeezed between two huge places that rented for twelve or fifteen thousand a season" (Chapter 1).
3. "I walked back to the house and stood within the shadow of the porch, feeling the night conceal my identity" (Chapter 1).
These quotes suggest that Nick's house is small, modest, and overgrown with vines. He seems to feel out of place in the grand surroundings of Long Island and suggests that his house is not as grand or luxurious as the other homes in the area.
