Well, he and Daisy where in love for five years straight  so he probably thought that when he came back, that he could easily win her over again but seeing how she married tom, that was not the case.

So I would say no, he did not know his "American Dream" was unobtainable because he believed that when he came back that Daisy would be very much still in love with and could be easily won back.

I haven't read this book in awhile, so I'm not really clear on what his "American Dream" was besides winning over Daisy.

anonymous · Answer

He actually achieved everything he wanted from his American Dream (money etc.) except Daisy.
