TAILIEUCHUNG - Lord of the Flies - William Golding

Lord of the Flies offers a variation upon the ever-popular tale of island adventure, and it holds all of the excitements common to that long tradition. Golding's castaways are faced with the usual struggle for survival, the terrors of isolation, and a desperate out finally successful effort to signal a passing ship which will return them to the world they have lost. This time, however, the story is told against the background of an atomic war.

Jr. Foreword ARTHUR P. ZIEGLER JR. It is most astonishing and lamentable that a book as widely read and frequently used in the classroom as William Gelding s Lord of the Flies has received so little analytical attention from the critics. True it has not been neglected this volume attests to that. But despite the profusion of essays by a number of well-known and worthy critics few close analyses of Golding s technique can be found among them few explications of the workings of the novel will be discovered. Indeed despite a running controversy over the meaning of the novel critical articles fall largely into a pattern of plot summary and applause for the arrangement of the novel s materials followed by observations on Golding s view of human nature often embellished with the critic s response to that view. There are exceptions .
