Description
The well-known plot: A plane crashes on a desert island. The only survivors are a group of schoolboys. By day, they explore the dazzling beaches, gorging fruit, seeking shelter, and ripping off their uniforms to swim in the lagoon. At night, in the darkness of the jungle, they are haunted by nightmares of a primitive beast. Orphaned by society, they must forge their own; but it isn't long before their innocent games devolve into a murderous hunt. William Golding's Lord of the Flies was originally published in 1954 and has been a canonical text on school syllabi and a familiar literary reference within the public's consciousness. For the first time this unforgettable classic has been given new life with Aimée de Jongh's graphic style and gorgeous color adaptation.
