The novel that I read was called the Lord of the Flies. This novel shows the reality of the life in a wild, and the difference between the wild life and civilized life. The story starts from when the World War 2 happened, the group of children tried to move to the safe place but the airplane crash and the children was left at the coral island where no one living. Through is novel the author shows the hidden evilness in peoples’ mind through the actions of the children in the island. The major theme of this novel is false accusation and depravity. This theme is important to teenager is this time because it shows that people have evilness in their mind so it tells us to be careful and know what you are doing is right or wrong.

I agree that all people have evil minds in their heart. A famous philosoper named Soonja believed that human’s inherent nature is bad which is what golding is trying to say.
