Read the following excerpt from The Great Gatsby:
I tried to think about Gatsby then for a moment but he was already too far away, and I could only remember without resentment, that Daisy hadn't sent a message or a flower. Dimly I heard some one murmur "Blessed are the dead that the rain falls on" and then the owl-eyed man said "Amen to that" in a brave voice.

Based on this excerpt, which best explains the irony of the title The Great Gatsby?

A. Gatsby's greatness is expressed by the prayer murmured at his funeral.
B. In bearing no resentment toward Daisy, nick responds in an unexpected way.
C. Daisy, the object of Gatsby's pursuit, does not even acknowledge his death.
D. Rain on the day of Gatsby's funeral underscores the sadness of the occasion.

Respuesta :

c is the correct answer to your question

Answer: C. Daisy, the object of Gatsby's pursuit, does not even acknowledge his death.

Irony occurs when the events of a narrative are the opposite to what the audience expected. In this case, the audience is aware of Gatsby's great love for Daisy. The implication throughout the book is that he would have done everything for her. However, contrary to what the audience expects, Daisy seems to care very little about his death. This is implied when we find out that Daisy did not attend Gatsby's funeral, nor did she sent a flower or a message.
