Woah, she's ROUND!

Chapter seven concludes Book I in the novel. It ends by showing Brett's characteristics and complexity. Brett and the Count.. (her friend? Confused by their relationship.).. come visit Jake Barnes at his home. They sit and chat about people, pasts, and knowledge that each has acquired. Nothing of great significance happens in this scence except for illustrating Brett's dynamic personalities. She has many friends, acqaintances, and expierences to share. On page 67, Brett brings up personal values and falling in love which reveals the gentle side of her. In my opinion, the purpose of this chapter is to show the audience that Brett is a round character. Also leaves the possibility of being a dynamic character if she somehow changes by the end of the novel..
