Read this passage from "The Great Gatsby"
My own house was an eyesore, but it was a small eyesore, and it had been overlooked, so I had a view of the water, a partial view of my neighbor's lawn, and the consoling proximity of millionaires—all for eighty dollars a month.
Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered along the water, and the history of the summer really begins on the evening I drove over there.
What message do phrases such as “the consoling proximity of millionaires” and “white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered” convey to the reader?
a
Financial wealth is desirable to the narrator.
b
Everyone in East Egg lives in a palace.
c
Financial wealth is not relevant in this novel.
d
The narrator despises people who live in large homes.
