Lord of the Flies: What happens when you give a group of schoolboys freedom, no supervision, and zero Wi-Fi

from Unserious Book Reviews · host Unserious Book Reviews

Lord of the Flies is what happens when you give a group of schoolboys freedom, no supervision, and zero Wi-Fi. When a plane crashes on a deserted island, stranding a bunch of British boys who were presumably on their way somewhere with proper adult oversight and tea. Miraculously, no grown-ups survive. Tragically, the boys do.They build shelters (badly), maintain a signal fire (inconsistently), and reassure the littluns that the mysterious “beast” on the island probably isn’t real. But things spiral fast, and when they do, the schoolchild in the boys rapidly disappears.=====================================Find more of our Unserious Book Reviews on our website http://unseriousbookreviews.com/Instagram: @unseriousbrBluesky: @unseriousbookrvws
