Lord of the Flies

William Golding’s novel Lord of the flies shows his theory on how human nature in itself
is stubborn, uncivilized, evil, destructive etc. Golding tells a story about a group of
British boys stranded on a deserted island during W.W.I. As time goes by the behavior of
these boys worsens from being nothing but good school boys to ones who would kill an
animal even worse one of their own. The changes that happen to the boys on the island
represent the changes that the world and its people are facing while evil is in control. On
the island Ralph, Jack, and Roger are the characters who show Goldings pessimistic
theory the best. Golding shows a pessimistic attitude about the future of mankind through
the boys changing of values, who is chosen for leadership, and though savage behavior of
his characters in his novel.
The boys on the island start to alter the values and rules they started with. After
Jacks hunt returns from his hunt he goes to the beach to find an angry Ralph...
