I would like it if you would share your points with us, first.

Also, I have a question (or a clarification, whichever you prefer):
By "the great gatsby and hamlet" do you mean The Great Gatsby and Hamlet, or, do you mean, the great Gatsby and Hamlet, using the "great" as an adjective describing the books. I'm sure it's the former, but I have to ask, because Gadsby is a seperate book some people mistake, and call Gatsby.

Fine, we'll take turns.
(after all, this is your project, and we are here to help you, not do the work)

The Great Gatsby:
Gatsby surrrounds himself with friends (appearance), yet he is lonely (reality).

hamlet
As the play is told Hamlet finds out his father was murdered by the recently crowned king. The theme that remains constant throughout the play is appearance versus reality. Things within the play appear to be true and honest but in reality are infested with evil. Many of the characters within the play hide behind a mask of falseness. Four of the main characters that hid behind this mask are Polonius, Rosencrantz (Guildenstern), the king Cluadius. From behind this mask they give the impression of a person who is sincere and genuine, in reality they are plagued with lies and evil. There appearance will make it very difficult for Hamlet to uncover the truth, the characters hide behind.


CAN YOU HELP ME MORE WITH The Great Gatsby

Good, we're making progress.
What you said on Hamplet is well worded and works with your topic very well. Don't give up on yourself so easily.

I'll expand upon what I said earlier.
The Great Gatsby
Gatsby surrounds himself with friends throughout the entire story. He throws huge parties quite often, inviting everyone in town and making a name for himself. However, he isn't at the parties. He is there, surrounded by all of these people, drinking, laughing, having a great time. However, they are not his friends. He does not know them, and only has them physically there to hid his own emotional loneliness for another day longer. He does not enjoy these social events; he creates a fasade to show otherwise. He is surrounded by all of these people, entirely alone. He wears a smile while he feels eternal loneliness. Instead of being with friends, he is in reality only poisoning himself, and causing everything that could be positive around him to be filled with negative emotions.

It's "well-worded" because it has been plagiarized from this site:

Hamlet - Appearance vs. Reality

Btw, "fasade" is spelled "facade."

Did you read the play and the book? What do YOU think?

Don't plagiarize off web sites.
