Explain the links between Tom's relationship with Daisy and his relationship with Myrtle. Is it one of money, control, love, class, or something else? Use incidents from the novel to support your opinions.
Daisy ieves tis Tom's wife and the mother of his child. She is his social equal, a source of pride. He will never leave her, never divorce her, but he will cheat on her, as he believes himself entitled to do so. He also believes she has no reason to complain, as long as he takes care of the family.
Myrtle is an affair. Tom is in control emotionally and financially. He has no qualms about sleeping with another man's husband, nor, does he worry about scandal in regard to his own wife. His affair is quiet and unobtrusive..... not public, and yet, Myrtle breaking Myrtle's nose.
