I loved this book! It's D. Because remember, he did NOT get rich off the man who hired him on the boat, and he was doing illegal things in back. In the end, he bought the house FOR his love.

The correct answer is D.

Gatsby's mansion is described as enormous and luxurious, but is, in a way, of bad taste.

The ostentatiouness of the house reflects that Gatsby is what is known as "new money," a person that does not come from inherited money, but has rather acquired it through hard work.

Gatsby seeks to impress people (mainly Daisy) with his gigantic and conspicuous mansion, to show how much of a rich man he is now.
