Ralph did not in fact want to lock the fuck in🥲

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

This was from a dtiys challenge by a friend on insta—had a lot of fun making it and am still quite proud of how it turned out!

You guys get an unfinished sketch of the choir squad as I try to ease my way back to posting

Literally would LOVE a graphic novel of the book in your style😩

Three silly boys hunting a beast under the silver moon.

I love this part when the boys go hunt the beast and Jack and Ralph are arguing if they will go to the mountain. I cant help but laugh of it like if none of them want to be the first to give up and go back to the beach, but then Roger offer to go with them and i can feel the two others like "fk of course it had to be roger" but they have to pretend to be brave and go to the mountain shitting their pants lol

TEAM MILES ✨💯‼️
