Explanation:

The Great Gatsby is a novel written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, published in 1925. The narrator, Nick Carraway, tells a story about a man called Jay Gatsby, who was once Nick's neighbor.

In this excerpt from the last chapter, Nick metaphorically explains his feelings after Gatsby's death. He notes that 'the East was haunted for me [Nick ] like that', and that he eventually decided to move away. The reader is left satisfied because Nick's attitude towards Gatsby's death demonstrates that he truly was Gatsby's friend. However, there is also the tone of sadness, as Gatsby's dreams never came true. Gatsby was a true believer, always looking for good in people, and his unconditional love for Daisy led to his tragic death.

because i have already answered your question several times, answering it again would be superfluous.
