Using this we learned that Minnie is a fifteen-year-old girl, whose father had moved her to Southampton from New Orleans in May, in order to get her mind off of boys and love. This move was not very effective, she was engaged before the first of June. Second, Fitzgerald also uses indirect characterization, through thoughts, words, and actions and through perceptions of other characters. This shows that Minnie has a wonderful personality and is very charming. We also .....
