Lord of the Flies (the novel)
The novel Lord of the Flies, by William Golding, was first published in England in 1954. Initially of little interest in this country, by the early 1960’s the book had gained popularity on college campuses all over the United States. Today, many consider the novel a modern classic. The book tells the story of what happens when a group of boys crash land on a tropical island. No adults survive the crash. Civilization eventually gives way to savagery as the boys form groups and soon begin to fight.
