Lord of the Flies (MY THOUGHTS)
This section is particularly interesting, which is called " The Shell and The Glasses", they talk a lot about how Piggy has now one eye and that confused how that happened they didn't say specifically or I just wasn't paying close attention when it happened . Through the whole book a lot of things happen that I understand but then they throw something that I don't know where they got it from thats what makes me so confused. Nevertheless, I'm enjoying the book because there are so many connections I can make to our society today that are probably lead me to find out the secret of this book. I know that this book has a deeper meaning to other than a whole bunch of children going mad and turning into savages. I have a brother who read this book and sometimes when I tell him I don't understand why this happened he tells I should read because its a secret I have find out by myself, so he is not giving me any hints of how the story ends or why this happens. It kills me that I have to deal with people who know what would happen but won't tell me anything. I can sort of relate Ralph alienating himself like Holden from Catcher and the Rye. They both want to go home and be with the family but Holden knows they won't be there to listen but with Ralph its different because they will actually be dead and to Holden his parents are dead too because they don't do anything but work and support him with money, but no love.
