the symbolic of brother man could be compared to jesus christ. There are few examples of these on page 74-75 where he shows godly ways by buying the crab from the little boy explaining that no creature deserves to be drapped or tied up like that cause every living thing had feelings. Another example is 175-181 is when the people of the village which he helped and preached to began to stone Brother Man nearly to the point of death, just like jesus was truned upon by the people he healed and helped and preached to turned against him and was thes to shout crucify him.
Its also symbolic when it comes to superstiton when Jesmina lost her earring and said it was bad luck and also page 70-72 when Brother Man saw the "old Mag" and was told that depending on if she gives you a greeting or a curse you will either be blessed or cursed forever. These scenes are very symbolic for the book "Brother Man"
