A Man On A Mission

I think the novel is much more general than that. Keep in mind that the way things play out on the island are meant to be a reflection of the war being fought by the adults in the background of the story. What war is being fought is never specified, and in truth, what specific war it was never really important. History has seen its fair share of dictators coming to power, just as it has seen all the violence and war that comes with it. Bringing it back to the novel, the island and what the boys do is not just a reflection of the fictional war that surrounds them in the world of the adults, but also a reflection of human history and its wars. You can swap these characters for any specific working cog in a specific war and have it make sense, because again, the story is not a metaphor for any one specific war, but the characters themselves ARE metaphors for the groups or individuals that work towards or against the creation of war and violence in human history. The boys play out this chain of events on an island that is devoid of the societies, rules, prejudices and political systems that war is often played out in, and that in itself lends to Golding’s thesis: human evil does not come about from the social constructs of the modern society, but from the innate proclivity towards evil within all of us.

Was lotf actually a metaphor for how the nazis rose to power and Simon’s death was a metaphor for the demonisation of minorities and piggy’s death was a metaphor for the assassination of political opponents and civil rights activists or was I just overthinking when I first read it
