Description

The Golden Hook In St. John’s Harbour, Newfoundland, Aatma the cod is banished from his school for wearing a golden hook. This accessory holds significant symbolic value to followers of Newfinism, Aatma’s religion. For the other fish in the harbour, hooks are a symbol of danger. Aatma’s classmates plead with their teacher to make Aatma remove his hook or leave school.
