《了不起的盖茨比》发生在1920爵士时代，然而黛西和盖茨比都有神话原型。黛西是塞壬，盖茨比是水手。当黛西开始吟说时，盖茨比的命运就已经注定。
《了不起的盖茨比》写到Daisy的出场，特别描绘了她的声音，这是一种迷人且致命的声音景观，让人想起希腊神话中的塞壬歌声。原文入下：
“我回头看我的表妹，她开始用低微而兴奋的声音向我发问。那声音总能吸引人听得全神贯注，好像她每句话都是只演奏一次的音符。她的脸庞忧伤而美丽，蕴含着生动的内容：明亮的眼睛，鲜艳而多情的小嘴。然而，她的声音里另有一种激动人心的美，让所有爱慕过她的男人都无法忘怀。那是一种想要歌唱的冲动，一声轻柔的“听着”，一种允诺，告诉我们她刚刚做完欢快兴奋的事情，而如此美事又在酝酿中。”
I looked back at my cousin who began to ask me questions in her low, thrilling voice. It was the kind of voice that the ear follows up and down as if each speech is an arrangement of notes that will never be played again. Her face was sad and lovely with bright things in it, bright eyes and a bright passionate mouth-but there was an excitement in her voice that men who had cared for her found difficult to forget: a singing compulsion, a whispered "Listen," a promise that she had done gay, exciting things just a while since and that there were gay, exciting things hovering in the next hour.
Odysseus and the Sirens (1891) John William Waterhouse
