Page 34: "One of the ten . . . and he sat down on the bench with the D.H.C., he was going to stay, to stay, yes, and actually talk to them . . . straight from the horse's mouth. Straight from the mouth of Ford himself."
I was going to read more before my next blog but I could not help but notice repetition taking place in the story. The phrase "straight from the horse's mouth" has been stated on multiple occasions in the story. Usually, it is said when the boys are transcribing every word that comes out of the Director's mouth, but now it is used for the Controller here. Now I am confused. I got even more confused when the story said that something was coming "straight from the mouth of Ford himself." Is the controller a genetic clone of Ford?" Why is the Controller even there? What regions of the world do the other 9 Controllers oversee? Hopefully my questions will be answered in the novel soon.
