Lord of the Flies – William Golding

Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature

Ešte pred The Stand a The Hunger Games, ešte pred Battle Royale a Yellowjackets, tu bol Lord of the Flies.

V knihe Lord od The Flies od Williama Goldinga na opustenom ostrove havaruje lietadlo a jedinými preživšími je skupina školákov. Cez deň objavujú nádherné pláže, no v noci ich prenasledujú nočné mory o primitívnej beštii a o tom, čo stratili. Odsúdení spoločnosťou si musia vytvoriť vlastnú, no skupina sa čoskoro rozdelí a nevinné hry sa menia na nebezpečný boj o prežitie.

Before The Stand and The Hunger Games, before Battle Royale and Yellowjackets, there was Lord of the Flies.

In Lord of the Flies by William Golding, a plane crashes on a deserted island, leaving only a group of schoolboys as survivors. By day, they explore beautiful beaches, but at night they are haunted by nightmares of a primitive beast and of what they have lost. Stranded by society, they must build their own, but the group soon splits and their innocent games turn into a dangerous struggle for survival.
