The Lord of the Flies - the horror of isolation

New School Critics

Chris talks about how much Lord of the Flies surprised him, assuming that it was...kind of childish? How Australian grade school kids prepared him to take the book seriously. As well as a line by line reading and lesson in what makes Golding's writing so "literary." The word pretentious gets said a lot. Like, a lot. ---------- Have a request for a movie, TV show, book, or album?
