"And in the middle of them, with filthy body, matted hair, and unwiped nose, Ralph wept or the end of innocence, the darkness of man's heart, and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy." A plane crash lands on a deserted island, leaving no adults, only a group of boys alive. This is the story of descent into savagery. From trying to govern themselves, to a divide being created, and an 'us verses them,' perspective arising. The island's society has resonance in the dual-party system of our governance model. There was pieces in this book for me that spoke to pack-mentality. Set during one of the world wars, it makes a comment about violence done in the name of dogma. Because someone 'higher up' told me to do the violence, I'm not responsible. 'It's the way it has to be.' Hierarchy breeds disharmony. I appreciate the darkness of this story. And the simplicity. The fear and the pace towards the end made my hairs stand on end. I don't want to read it again, but I can see why it's the winner of a Nobel Prize for literature.

Okay, but what if instead of feeling pressured into voting for Jack the choir boys genuinely were impressed with him and wanted him to lead.
Everyone: Ralph would be a good and rational leader
Jack: But I can sing C#
The choir boys: Woah he’s got my vote
Jack Merridew: Whats this dumbshit I hear about a monster? We're gonna have to send you back to kindergarten!
Larry: I'm serious.
Jack Merridew: Ok what kind of monster? Did it have fur and poison fangs, or long slimy tentacles?
Larry: It growled and it came out of me and it's mouth, it was wet.
Luke: Maybe it was a bear.
Roger: Sounds more like a reptile.
Jack Merridew: Sounds more like bullshit.
