Abstract

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald and Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood by Marjane Satrapi are both the analysis and portraits of two different corrupted societies in whom the concept of what is good and what is important has been lost. The novels deal with a society built by a group of characters who has lost their sense of moral and social judgement. And to emphasize and underline these missing aspects of the characters they omitted what actually can be considered important like the characters. Both writers had built their novels on what they have not written instead of what they have written using narrative ellipsis. By using narrative ellipsis both writers achieved to emphasize the characters’ perspective and attitude towards life and each other in general.
