The decade of the 1920s is often referred to as the "Roaring Twenties." Describe Gatsby's party. How could it be considered a good reflection of the 1920s era?

The noveau riche that populate Gatsby's parties are the epitome of the vapid pursuit of material wealth. Despite the opulence and grandeur of Gatsby's legendary swarays, nobody seems particularly happy. This goes for Gatsby as well. He sits alone like a third person watching and pining after a girl (Daisy) that is more illusion than anything else. The parties are large drunken spectacles. This was supposed to be the American Dream but underneath it was rotten to its core.
