Lord of the Flies

I watched Lord of the Flies last night as way of researching my next book. Now I'm reading the book. I've read it before, but wanted to read it again. What a facinating psychological novel. What would you do if you were stranded on a deserted island? Could you survive? Was it because the boys were so young that they lost their humanity, or could that happen to any group under similar circumstances. Would females have humanized the situation?

  1. First off, I LOVE THE NEW LAYOUT!!!!!

    Secondly, I have to admit I've always been kinda afraid to read this book because the premise disturbed me so much. I've seen snippets of the movie--it's just a crazy concept. Maybe I should give it a try.

    Thirdly, I find that females humanize most situations ;)
