Relation Toward Books William Golding's Lord of the Flies (Bloom's Notes)

I read Lord of the Flies few days ago and felt the need for further discussions written about it. I found this book, a compilation of essays by notable authors. I must say that was a good decision on my part. I could never have appreciated Lord of the Flies , the Novel, it’s literally interpretations and deeper meanings in Goulding’s intent, the way I do now. I think anyone going through this text will see the necessity for critical analysis of literary stories for deepening the understanding of interested readers. Highly recommended.

I thought think was an interesting book because it makes me wonder what i would do if i were to wake up one day on an isolated island waiting to be saved. It also makes me wonder whether i would become a savage like Jack of it i would keep my humanity and try to stay alive. Other than that, i think that it would be sad to wake up everyday just trying to stay alive wondering whether any ship out there would come close and see a smoke signal.

very thought-provoking...

Excellent commentary on one view of the nature of man.

To weird for words. I did not enjoy this book at all. It is a clever concept and well written for its time but not my cup of tea.

Found a couple of criticisms I can use with my high school students.
