Review: Life Magazine published a documentary about the making of the film which was made on an island in the Caribbean. The boy actors were living in a bunkhouse. One night their "scout master" was awakened by a commotion in the boys' room. He went in and discovered them to all be huddled on the floor surrounding an electric fan. The fan guard had been removed. They were having a contest. The winner was the boy whose newly-caught lizard was sliced into the greatest number of pieces when tossed into the blades of the fan.

Summary: My favorite book
Review: It is strange that my facorite book was one that I had to read for English. Usually I find that books are spoiled by overanalysis in class, but two years later I continue to return to Lord of the Flies for numerous examples relating to real life. Few books have made me think as much as Lord of the Flies did. I would, and have, recommended it to anyone looking for a good read.concise but complex, easy to read and still multidimentional

Summary: Suspenseful but interesting
Review: I am a 14 year old hyperactive male. So as anyone would know, being hyperactive, book reading is not a favorite thing. But when I really started to understand the book I became quite intrigued. This book is based on two conflicts: Man vs. Self and Man vs. Man. It gives a great aspect of how civilization turns wild when no control is in order. It also shares two different points of views. There is more irony in this book in any that I have read (which is very few). Not many people would understand cause even I had to ask for help in understanding. This is a great book.

Summary: Fantastic!
Review: I thought this book was some of the best work of this century, and as the new century rolls in, I believe that it will stay this way. As a fundimental, as well as critical reader, I thought it was great, and would gladly recomened it to anyone, regardless of age. One normally hears that it is horrid, but that would be the last word to decsribe it. I found myself not able to put the book down, and found it utterly magical.

Summary: Excellent book but it's not about boys on an island
Review: Although it is quite a gripping adventure story, there is far more to this book than a bunch of boys running about on an island. Golding himself designed it as a critical allegory illustrating the potentially dark nature of mankind and the importance of the individual in controlling society. However, it could easily be interpreted differently - as an illustration of the corrupting effect of society, as a reflection of the conflicting components of the human soul, etc. Truly a fascinating novel.

Summary: A perfect illustration of Freid's Theory of the Self.
Review: This book is a very easy book to read on the surface. It has deeper characters and hidden meaning. William Golding does a fabulous job of applying Freid's Thoery of the Self and how it relates to humanity! An excellent weekend read. A must for any debater!

Summary: This book is wonderful!!
Review: I just finished reading "Lord of the Flies" in my eighth grade accelerated literature class. My whole class enjoyed it. I think that one thing that helped us understand it was our teacher. she explained it all to us in detail and read some parts aloud. It was a great book that everyone should read.

Summary: this is an okay book, but not one of the best i've read
Review: i'm reading this book because it's required for junior english. i personally think that the beginning half of the book is boring and there is not point to it. i have heard that the ending is good, but if it were up to me i would not continue reading it. it just doesn't grab my attention like some books can. however, i have not finished the book and therefore cannot fairly judge it.
