Lord of the Flies
William Golding

Section 3: 9-12 (pg 145-202)
In many of my English classes, there has been discussion of great literature classics. By reading Lord of the Flies, I hope to be able to add something to those discussions. I am aware of the basic plot, of how a group of British boys become barbaric as they spend time further and further away from order/society. What always intrigued me was how true or plausible Golding's interpretation of (young) human nature was. Reading this novel will hopefully give me insight and allow me to form my own opinion. In addition, I have not read too many "classics" before. In an attempt to increase my boundaries related to reading, I'm going to give Lord of the Flies a try!
