Hey I read this novel a while ago and like many other will have to read it again. One of the things i remeber is the class differences between the characters. Remeber that the novel takes place during a time in America where people were indulgent with their desires, thus the huge parties in the novel. Im not saying this doesnt go on today. It does. You can compare the times and lifestyles of people from the novel and today. You could take a modern popular icon and one of the characters from the book and go from there. Just a suggestion. Hope it helps.
