Lord_Of_The_Flies

Lord Of The Flies “There’s no one here. There are no houses, no cars, no people, no boats, no nothing. Were on an uninhibited island.” This is a quote from a boy named Ralph, and this is where William Golding places a group of British boys in the magnificently written novel Lord of The Flies. This book takes every reader to the deep mind of a child’s primitive thoughts, and explores every aspect of the possibilities that may occur when you put preteen and young children in an island that is isolated from the rest of the world. Frequent changes in the scenario keep you wondering what will happen next, and chapter titles foreshadow the events of the pages to come. Symbolism, outsiders, and the rise and fall of society are the three main points in the book that eventually set up an amazing roller coaster beginning, climax, and ending. A conch; a whitish cream covered shell is the stronghold to a society that is continually deteriorating throughout the novel. This shell, in the mind of the inhabitants of the island, is used to call meetings; and all attention must be delivered to whomever is in control of the conch.
