Description

Lord of the Flies is a thought-provoking novel that has captivated readers since its publication in 1954. Written by a teacher himself, William Golding understood what excites and interests children, creating a gripping story with strong, sympathetic characters.

The novel raises important questions about human nature, morality, and the consequences of power. As the boys struggle to find a way of existing in a community with no fixed boundaries, readers are invited to evaluate concepts such as social and political constructs, moral frameworks, and the role of leadership.

This new educational edition includes a biographical section on William Golding, historical context information, and additional teaching resources, including chapter summaries, comprehension questions, discussion points, and activities. A glossary of less familiar words or phrases is also included, making it an ideal choice for students completing GCSE and A-Level courses.
