Seems there is a special thesaurus ya finger of god..where on earth do they get some names! lol...

umeguluka.

Note how she defers to him with her statements, "As Hellon has said we....." "and Hellon will be telling you a...." Note how she glances at him whenever she speaks (video time 4:10) as if to seek affirmation. Note her attentive and slow head nodding when he speaks (video time 3:18). Note the body language at (video time 2:22). Do you see the hands held back, the slight lean forward, the head bowed with the shifting of position. This guy has this woman by her body, mind and spirit. Every living, breathing, talking, thinking (or not) part of her existence is in the hands of Joseph Hellon. My dear friends this for good or for ill this is what absolute power is. Total and complete domination of another human being. It is a craving that some people have just the same way some people have cravings for drugs. This guy Hellon is a power maniac and he wants his church everyone he meets and now the country at large to be in awe of him the way Esther is. He will do anything to be the centre of attention from pompous dressing to pompous talk. He will drive himself hard and will not tolerate dissent or opposition to his ideas. If he had the intellect, the power and resources he could do great and memorable things as some people in history who had the same temperament as he. They include Adolf Hitler, Maximilien Robespierre, Jean-Paul Marat etc. These kind of people literary change the world or die or go insane trying.

Kusadikika, I think the word for what you describe is "narcissistic". Despite the effort, the story is not about him, its about Arunga, for society revels more at 'big' people's apparent weakness than prowess.

Thanks Brewer, thats the word.

Despite Hitlers actions, its true that the first part of his life is study of power and its control. Theres more to him than gas chambers that rarely gets mentioned due to factors known to all here
