Lord of the Flies

Well, I suppose I'd start with the ending. E. g. how have the characters changed? What will they be like as they return to society and are forced to answer for what they did on the island?

How would you write such an epilogue?

PS Welcome to Able2Know!

Well Actually I have to write one for my English class and I haven't decided yet how to do it.

The conch is mine!

You suck my assmar!

I meant, sucks to your assmar!

umm...yeah...not really helping here Slappy Doo Hoo but 10x anyway :wink:

supposing the characters, following rescue, joined the ranks of Fleet Street, MP's of Parliment, a plumber in Leeds, a drug addict in Amsterdam and a couple of them opened a pub just north of Hyde Park.

Make it short. Have them return to the island, bring back their memories and end it with a quote.

Hmmm the characters start out as civilized but the book shows that the veneer of civilization is pretty thin. But then they return to civilization, but they've changed. Is the change irrevocable?

If it's irrevocable, then the boys are more or less fated to become criminals, I figure. If it isn't, then how and why? Could a boy change back by willpower? Therapy? Love?

The book also makes them out (for the most part) to be a rabble, or mob. Do they return to more independent thinking? Or is the mob traded for something else, like cliques or the army or a gang or a cult?
