Formalist Analysis of Literary Device

Find an example of a literary device in The Great Gatsby or "A&P," one that you feel is significant in its use. With this in hand, you will write two well-developed paragraphs. The first paragraph will be an explanation of the devices' context within the text you have chosen. This context is an explanation of both when and how the text is used in the text. The second paragraph will be an analysis of why the device was used; how does it function within that context and for what purpose is it used?
