This does not really have anything to do with my position as connector, but I would like to point something out. Does it not seem that by the end of the story Carton is portrayed to be more of a central character than any of the other main characters? Throughout the story we could only really get into Lucie’s, Lorry’s, the Doctor’s and a few others thoughts. But now at the end of the story, we got inside Carton’s head and were able to see what he was thinking.

Anyway, now to be the connector. In a very distant way, because we all know that this story’s events were no way near as significant… the sacrafice that Carton made for Lucie, Darnay, Dr. Manette and Lorry could somewhat be related to the sacrafice that Jesus Christ had made on the cross for everyone in the world. Throughout Jesus’ time spent human on earth, he taught people of God and guided them in the correct direction to eventually get to heaven. Even though Carton may have not seemed like a huge main character, he was still there to help and enfluence people. And lastly, when Jesus had died and sacraficed himself for us on the cross, this is similar to Carton disguising himself and then sacrificing himself to save Lucie, Darnay, the doctor and Lorry. Do you agree with me? (Or laugh at me, haha) Can any of you think of another way that the two are similar?

Hope you guys enjoyed this book as much as I did………………………………
