The mirror was straightened! Why did Number
6 bother to straighten that mirror? Well it was a wild party, but once Number 6
had straightened that mirror the party did settle down a little. And yet it
might also be said that in straightening the mirror it was symbolic of Number 6
taking control of his final dream sequence in ‘A B and C.’

Hello David,
ReplyDeleteto me it always seems as if the mirror was the only straight thing at the party, it was reality that was crooked. By straightening the mirror he actually synchronised reality and its picture, maybe this helped him to realize what was going on. I think so, too, it was an act of taking control.
Best regards,

Hello Jana,
DeleteLooking at the mirror on the wall, as I am at the moment, the mirror is set at an angle on the wall, to me it looks to me as that's how the mirror is supposed to be. If that's correct, then Number 6 is "un-straightening" the mirror. But the effect on the party, and the symbolism is still the same.
Very best regards
