Daily Log

Tuesday, June 7
We began by examining the Platonic ladder of love at the end of Chapter VI of Gatsby (with the aid of Obsession by Calvin Klein) and moved on to (back to) Gatsby's birth in his Platonic conception of himself at the beginning of the chapter. We considered the problematic relationship in the novel between the material and the real, between the dream and the dream's embodiment.
