In the words of E.M. Forster, Lord of the Flies "begins like a Ballantyne yarn, but ends grimly otherwise. Beatifully written, tragic, and provocative."
Adopted this book and many others on Saturday January 19th from a very kind person. Thank you. My wife wants this one wild released asap - she found the book disturbing when read in high school and doesn't even want this book and its "gross cover" in the house. But I enjoyed it, and this copy is in mint condition, so I think we should keep it for the time being. Consider it hidden from my wife's sight.
