Book blog: Lord of The Flies


    Lord of The Flies is a unique book. It sounds like an average cliche book about  out boys and an island. The book is way deeper then that. The book is about 248 pages long. This book is an allegory, young adult fiction, and a novel. A quote I found intresting in the book was "maybe there is a beast… maybe it's only us.” This quote is a big part of the story and you need to reed the boom to understand what this represents. 



Summary: This story timeline is somewhere towards the end of world war 2. A group of little boys and teens is taken down. No adult survives and only the boys. They at first look at it as a gift, they have unlimited freedom and can play around. They later realize it is a curse, so they decided to form a civilization and Ralph is the leader. They blow a conch to form meetings. This kid named Jack doesn't like how much power Ralph has or his order so he forms a savage like tribe. They have rituals and feast. The savage group raids the civilized one and acts like a game. They get crazier by the days. (This book has a lot of symbols and actions to show a bigger meaning. In this book you really have to think to understand the symbols.)
