The Great Gatsby: Irony

There are a few cases of dramatic irony in this book, of course there's going to be with all of the secret affairs going on, but one comes to mind for me. Dramatic irony is irony that is inherent in speeches or a situation of a drama and is understood by the audience but not grasped by the characters in the play. So basically, the reader knows what is going on, but the character has no idea. This is apparent when George Wilson and Tom think that Gatsby drove over George's wife in his car. However, we as readers know that Daisy was the one driving and Gatsby took the blame because he loved her so much and didn't want her to get in trouble. pg.151: "Was Daisy driving?" "Yes, but of course I'll say I was."
