Lord of The Flies by William Golding ( 1954 )
Its not actually child book, There’re many
philosophical phrase about human, relationship, brotherhood and maybe politic.
Its fun book because only childs interfere in it, but absolutely not fun
stories. In the beginning, its seems cute like the shell, the rule for speak,
row of child form something like party or sort of, it remind me of Spongebob
episode magic shell when Patrick, Sponge and Squid lost in forrest. Why not fun
stories, close to the end of the book its nearly like the 1979 Capolla’s movie Apocalypse Now.
The story start about group of child lost in unknown
island, firstly they’re separated from one another but then a
child find shell that could sound like wistle, and when he blow it every childs
come to make an assemble. Then they pick a leader and divide the job for each
one, its like political procession, how when its get worse everything is ruin.
The
group divided into two which is to hunt for food and the leader’s to make and
keep the fire alive to make sign so ship can see it and save them. They
gathering fruit, build a shelter, hunt animal for food, and held meeting
regularly. Firstly, the hunters are afraid to chase down a pig, of course
they’re still bunch of kids, but later they gradually become kind of gang of
hyena or something, they become greed and held a party to celebrate their prey.
It’s the day that the leader of the hunters quarrel with the chief, the hunters
left the chief and form their own assemble, what they’re doing is hunt and eat
to survive. And the chief and some of followers keep the fire to savior.
And
there’s mysterious scary thing (unknown thing) that the kids called the beast,
and the hunters so arrogant that he’ll catch the beast. Lord of The Flies
itself is mysterious creature that guide one of the child to the group of
hunters when they’re in high and when this kid come, they think he’s the beast
and kill him. Its creepy thing that kids killing each other. Later the hunter become worse and they
kill another kid and finally hunt the chief to kill him. The and is little bit
awkward that when the hunters chase the chief to the beach, a ship come and
they’re all crying like a kid as usual.
