MIddle Passage... The Beggining of the End

I have taken a real interest in this book. The main issue that comes up in my head while im reading htis is how the Hell does Charles Johnson come up with the things in this book.. such as the Almusari, how they think, their identiy.. like the lack of finger prints???? I wish i was as clever as he was. The idea of capturing a God? like where the hell is he getting all this? Its fantasitc I eat that shit up! I like the character Falcon, he is one of the most interesting people ive ever read about, not only how he is protrayed in the book but how he talks and how other react with him in the novel. the ideas he thinks of are amazing and a beautiful way to think about society. I completly agree with his thoughts on the winning opinion is the right one, because if the winning one kicks all the losing opinions out... who else is there? No one. I think the biggest concept of "middle" is Rutherford. He connects with Captain Falcon, who represents Unity then he also gets along wth Ngonyama, the Almusari leader who represtents Dualism. Rutherford is a common ground amongst all of the characters that we have meet so far, he is a median in every situation and he happened to stow away on The Republic which follows the Middle Passage, there is no way that he cant symbolize the greater meaning of "middle". Now the center is being connected to all things in an equal way, middle is more having some sort of relationship not necessarily equal to both sides. He has a relation with everything but he is not the middle and equally connected so there for he is the middle, but not the center. I think the symbolism of Center in this book would be The Republic. It is equally connected to every one on it, no more or less with one person. Now i haven't read past Entry the Third but i am very curious to see how the God is portrayed in the book, is it a good God that helps unify people? or is it an evil God that will raise hell and destruction and kill every one on the ship except the people with colored skin? maybe i don't know just predicting. I like the way this book is written, i love the language and the references in the book and how unique every character is from one another. there is no same character attributes at all. they are all sooo very different like maybe not polar opposite but different in essentially every way. I truly like this book its liken nothing ive ever read and i believe that it is the kind of book that every one can love even if people dont like this sort of genre i think it is possible for every person to enjoy. I cant wait to see what happens next.
