El Gran Gatsby
Capítulo 4, Página 2
A
man
named
Klipspringer
was
there
so
often
that
he
was
called
“the
boarder”—I
doubt
he
had
another
home.
There
were
theater
people
like
Gus
Waize,
Horace
O’Donavan,
Lester
Myer,
George
Duckweed,
and
Francis
Bull.
Also
from
New
York
were
the
Chromes,
the
Backhyssons,
the
Dennickers,
Russel
Betty,
the
Corrigans,
the
Kellehers,
the
Dewars,
the
Scullys,
S.
W.
Belcher,
the
Smirkes,
the
young
Quinns,
now
divorced,
and
Henry
L.
Palmetto,
who
killed
himself
by
jumping
in
front
of
a
subway
train
in
Times
Square.
Benny
McClenahan
always
arrived
with
four
girls.
They
were
never
exactly
the
same,
but
they
looked
so
similar
that
it
seemed
they
had
been
there
before.
I
have
forgotten
their
names—maybe
Jaqueline,
or
Consuela,
or
Gloria,
or
Judy,
or
June,
and
their
last
names
were
either
like
flowers
and
months
or
strong
names
of
great
American
capitalists,
whose
cousins,
if
asked,
they
would
claim
to
be.
Besides
all
these,
I
remember
Faustina
O’Brien
came
at
least
once,
the
Baedeker
girls,
young
Brewer,
who
had
his
nose
shot
off
in
the
war,
Mr.
Albrucksburger
and
Miss
Haag,
his
fiancée,
Ardita
Fitz-Peters,
Mr.
P.
Jewett,
once
head
of
the
American
Legion,
and
Miss
Claudia
Hip
with
a
man
said
to
be
her
chauffeur,
and
a
prince
of
something,
whom
we
called
Duke,
and
whose
name
I
have
forgotten
if
I
ever
knew
it.
All
these
people
came
to
Gatsby’s
house
in
the
summer.
At
nine
o’clock
one
morning
late
in
July,
Gatsby’s
beautiful
car
drove
up
the
rocky
drive
to
my
door,
playing
a
melody
from
its
horn.
It
was
the
first
time
he
had
visited
me,
though
I
had
gone
to
two
of
his
parties,
used
his
hydroplane,
and,
at
his
invitation,
often
enjoyed
his
beach.
