Give me Summary of the Book "The Lord of the Flies" by William Golding
The Lord of the Flies is a 1954 novel by Nobel Prize-winning British author William Golding.
It is set on an uninhabited tropical island and follows a group of British schoolboys who attempt to govern themselves with disastrous results.
The story is allegorical and explores the idea of human nature and the conflict between civilisation and savagery.
The novel's central themes are the fear of the unknown, the power of fear, and the fragility of civilisation.
The boys elect Ralph as their leader and attempt to create a functioning society but eventually descend into savagery and violence.
Jack and his group of followers form a separate tribe, hunt wild pigs, and create a primitive religion in which they worship the beast—a mythical creature that is a symbol of their own savagery.
In the end, the boys are rescued by a passing naval officer and brought back to civilisation.
