Book Report
Lord of the Flies Dylan Fuhs
By: William Goldberg
This story takes place on an uncharted island in the middle of nowhere. The main characters in this story are Ralph and Piggy but more so Ralph. Ralph is a leader and a very calm person. Piggy, on the other hand is the only voice of reason on the island and is very fat.Again Piggy is the only voice of reason on the island and is also probably the smartest even though physically he is very weak.
Jack however, is a vicious cruel evil savage even though it does not seem that way at the beginning of the story. You find out about him wanting …show more content…
Then the savages begin hunting for Ralph. They form a huge line and he hides in a thicket until it was time to run. Then he gets scared and runs until he almost dies. Does he survive? Or does he get killed? Read the book to find out.
In my opinion the theme of the story was that a group of boys are stranded on an island. My other opinion is that if you ever are stranded on an island don’t go insane and kill each other, or death ensues. I think Jack and Ralph learn that civilization is hard to keep together and that staying together is always important. I also think that the theme of this story is that even coming from a very civilized place savagery can overrule common sense easily. Finally I think that one thing Ralph may have been affected by this experience is that he’ll probably never trust anyone again.
One thing that I really liked about the book was that it was very descriptive language about what was happening. One thing I didn’t like however was the fact that Piggy died because I think he deserved to make it back to civilization alive. However, It was a very good thing that some of them made it back alive. I also liked the way the author described the way the boys in this story went insane. Lastly I disliked the way Ralph was randomly hit with a spear when running
