- Critique
- Lord of the Flies written by Willam Golding, is a 208 page novel, written in
- 1954. Lord of the Flies is about a group of of young english boys who’s planes
- crashes onto a remote island. Throught the novel the boys gradually changed
- from civilzed english boys to to small savages that need to surive.
- The author used many metaphors and Imagery to describe the situations
- and places on the island. All the places in the island where described very well for
- example when Ralph first used the conch to call the other boys. The author says,
- “Ralph pursed his lips and squurted air into the shell, which emitted a low , farting
- noise.” That line tells the reader exactly how he blew the conch and he described
- how he put he is lips on it and what sound it made. He uses very descriptive
- words in that line and the reader feels like they are standing right next too them.
- the authors metaphors are also another good use of litery techinque it in the
- book. Willam Golding also uses alliteration in this next example. This quote is
- when Jck is ready to hunt the beast. “He gave a wild whoop and leapt down to
- the pale sand.” Wild whoop” would be alliteration and could also be considered
- onomapeia. The “pale sand” is a metaphor beacuse it described what the sand
- looked like. Willam Golding used many literary techinques in this book which
- make the book more interesting and fun to read.
- Lord of the Flies by Willam Golding was very interesting and fun too
- read. I liked how the author described many aspects of the island and the
- creatures that lived on it. The book was very detalitled so i always new what was
- going on and it felt like I was right there because the book is so detailed. I liked
- reading Lord of the Flies because it was very interesting. It described so
- manythings that i could imagine being next to one of the characters. Lord of The
- Flies proved ot be a great adventure novel. I would recomened this book to
- anyone who likes to read adventure novels and peole who like a good ending in
- the book.
