"The notable thing was, that the sovereignty of it all was divided between," are the opening words of which book?

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
The Catcher in the Rye
Moby-Dick
The Great Gatsby

The correct answer is: The Great Gatsby

Option A, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, does not fit the given opening words as it does not mention any division of sovereignty. Option B, The Catcher in the Rye, also does not mention any division of sovereignty in its opening words. Option C, Moby-Dick, is not a correct choice as its opening sentence does not match the given phrase. Therefore, the only correct option is option D, The Great Gatsby, which begins with the phrase, "In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice." This option is the only one that matches the given phrase and sets the context of discussing divided sovereignty.
