Lord of the Flies is a dystopian novel by William Golding, first published in 1954. The story follows a group of British schoolboys stranded on an uninhabited island after a plane crash. As they attempt to govern themselves, their initial order collapses into chaos, violence, and savagery. The novel explores themes of civilization versus savagery, human nature, power, and morality. Through its gripping and symbolic narrative, Lord of the Flies serves as a profound critique of the fragility of social structures and the darkness within human beings. A staple of modern literature, the novel remains widely studied and analyzed.
