Book Reviews of Golding's the Lord of the Flies (Cliffs Notes)
Book Review: A New View
Summary: 5 Stars
As I was reading the novel i understood the story, but did not understand the symbolism contained in Golding's work. The Cliff Notes explain the imagery through character analysis and comments on each chapter making the novel very understandable. It was very interesting in how the book pulled together showing a parallel of modern society, not just an adventure story of boys on an island, that Golding so ingeniously created.
