A review by star_witch
Lord of the Flies by William Golding

2.0

"Ideas of community, leadership, and the rule of law are called into question". Uhm... Where?? Did we read the same book?? It's just a bunch of 12 year old boys (0 female characters, like you have got to be kidding, do women not exist in this world??) running around recking havoc.

If there is a book that properly makes the reader "evaluate the concepts involved in social and political constructs and moral frameworks" (which is what this book promised to do) it's most certainly not this one.

Probably the best example of incredible premise, very bad execution.
I feel betrayed.
