The document discusses how power is misused in The Great Gatsby. It introduces Mr. Gatsby, the rich neighbor of Nick, and describes Gatsby's impressive mansion, luxurious parties, and expensive cars, which display his power and influence. However, this power is misused, as Gatsby accumulates wealth in pursuit of his love for Daisy, who is married to another man, suggesting his powerful means are aimed at manipulating others' feelings rather than ethical goals.
