The Golden Day
The Golden Day is the symbolic object of chapter 3, it represents Africa, specifically Ethiopia . TIM describes The Golden Day as club that the veterans go to. The club is ran by Halley who is one of the only black man in a place of power we've met so far, Halley represents Hallie Selassie who was Ethiopia's emperor. The Golden Day is like Ethiopia in the fact that it seems to be the only place where black men hold respectable position such as doctors and lawyers, it has not been corrupted by the white men as yet. Mr. Norton's visit to the Golden Day brings nothing but chaos just like during the colonization period when the White men brought chaos to Africa.
