In Chapter 3 of The Great Gatsby, the party at Gatsby's mansion is described as a grand and extravagant affair, with guests from all walks of life. The atmosphere is described as "riotous and ecstatic" with music playing, people dancing, and drinks flowing freely. The scene is chaotic, with guests wandering from room to room, enjoying the various entertainments, such as the orchestra, the bar, and the buffet.
One of the guests who stands out in my imagination is a young woman dressed in a flapper-style dress, with a feather boa around her neck. She is laughing and dancing with a group of friends, her long pearls swaying as she moves to the music. She introduces herself to Nick, the narrator, and tells him that she has been coming to Gatsby's parties for weeks, but has never actually met the host.
As the night goes on, the party becomes even more wild, with people jumping into the pool and splashing around, fully clothed. The young woman and her friends are among the first to jump in, shrieking with laughter as they swim around. Gatsby himself appears briefly, smiling and nodding at the guests, but he disappears again just as quickly.
In my imagination, the young woman and her friends continue to dance and drink into the early hours of the morning, until the party begins to wind down. As they stumble out of the mansion and into the cool night air, they laugh and hug each other, agreeing that it was the best party they had ever attended. The young woman looks up at the moon, feeling carefree and alive, and thinks to herself that this is the kind of party that memories are made of.
