In 1988, Ginevra King was born in St. Paul. When Fitzgerald was 19 years old and enrolled at the private school Westover, he first met her there. At Princeton, Ginevra King was a student. As will be explored below, Ginevra King and Zeda Sayre were crucial in the development of Daisy in The Great Gatsby.
For Fitzgerald's sake, Ginevra King had staked her existence on the promises it held. This man frequently spent a lot of time writing love letters to Fitzgerald and was dedicated to taking many different actions to win her affection. A few of these messages were first made public ten years ago. Zeda Sayre is therefore an instrumental symbol that is widely believed to have directly inspired the self-centered, flighty and gorgeous Daisy Buchanan in The Great Gatsby. Daisy Buchanan possess a sense of a voice that is full of money, a true reflection of belonging to a wealthy class. We find that after Daisy breaking up with King, she settled with a rich man (Tom Buchanan).
Ginevra King was goal oriented in looking for the appropriate woman. We find this so in Daisy as she is exhibiting the same habit also in the search for her male counterpart. Just as the same way Daisy married Tom Buchanan in The Great Gatsby, King also married Mitchel in the year 1918. This is after divorcing Fitzgerald. Ginevra King eventually broke up with Mitchell and this compelled her to remarry and settled into an ornate Forest, a place that was built for her father’s banker.
