Why was Mr. Murry on Camazotz?
Mr. Murry tells Calvin that his trip to Camazotz was a complete accident. He had been selected to tesser second. The first person hadn’t come back, and so he knew it was a big risk. He knows now that they must “take time” and make the right decisions about how to go about things. Their previous rush to judgement might have been what sent them hurtling into trouble.
