this book has many symbolisim,and it is mainly about human behaviors. It shows that humans can not live without rules or how humans behave without rules. It can also be read as a political level. what i like best was the clarity of the book,the style of his writing and how the story was plot. To me, i think this is a very good book and that it should be highly acknowledged. lord of the flies is a wonderfull, symbolic, and a good book. I LOVE IT
