編輯推薦
《蠅王》描述在一場未來的核戰爭中,一架飛機帶著一群孩子從本土飛到南方疏散。飛機被擊落,孩子們乘坐的機艙落到一座世外桃源般的、荒無人煙的珊瑚島上。起初孩子們齊心協力,後來由於害怕所謂的“野獸”分裂成兩派,以崇尚本能的專製派壓倒瞭講究理智的民主派而告終。
內容簡介
William Golding's compelling story about a group of very ordinary small boys marooned on a coral island has become a modern classic. At first it seems as though it is all going to be great fun; but the fun before long becomes furious and life on the island turns into a nightmare of panic and death. As ordinary standards of behaviour collapse, the whole world the boys know collapses with them—the world of cricket and homework and adventure stories—and another world is revealed beneath, primitive and terrible.
Lord of the Flies remains as provocative today as when it was first published in 1954, igniting passionate debate with its startling, brutal portrait of human nature. Though critically acclaimed, it was largely ignored upon its initial publication. Yet soon it became a cult favorite among both students and literary critics who compared it to J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye in its influence on modern thought and literature.
Labeled a parable, an allegory, a myth, a morality tale, a parody, a political treatise, even a vision of the apocalypse, Lord of the Flies has established itself as a true classic.
《蠅王》是英國作傢、諾貝爾文學奬獲得者威廉·戈爾丁的代錶作,是一本重要的哲理小說,藉小孩的天真來探討人性的惡這一嚴肅主題。故事發生於想象中的第三次世界大戰,一群六歲至十二歲的兒童在撤退途中因飛機失事被睏在一座荒島上,起先尚能和睦相處,後來由於惡的本性的膨脹起來,便互相殘殺,發生悲劇性的結果。作者將抽象的哲理命題具體化,讓讀者通過閱讀引人入勝的故事和激動人心的爭鬥場麵來加以體悟,人物、場景、故事、意象等都深具象徵意義。
作者簡介
Born in Cornwall, England, in 1911 and educated at Oxford University, William Gerald Golding's first book, Poems, was published in 1935. Following a stint in the Royal Navy and other diversions during and after World War II, Golding wrote Lord of the Flies while teaching school. This was the first of several novels including Pincher Martin, Free Fall, and The Inheritors and a play, The Brass Butterfly, which led to his being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1983.

精彩書評
"The most influential novel...since Salinger's Catcher in the Rye."
-- Time
"Lord of the Flies [is my selection for The Book That Changed My Life] because it is both a story with a message and because it is a great tale of adventure. My advice about reading is to do a lot of it."
-- Stephen King, for the National Book Foundation, The Book That Changed My Life
"[T]his brilliant work is a frightening parody on man's return (in a few weeks) to that state of darkness from which it took him thousands of years to emerge. Fully to succeed, a fantasy must approach very close to reality. Lord of the Flies does. It must also be superbly written. It is."
-- The New York Times Book Review
"[S]parely and elegantly written...Lord of the Flies is a grim anti-pastoral in which adults are disguised as children who replicate the worst of their elders' heritage of ignorance, violence, and warfare."
-- Joyce Carol Oates, New York Review of Books

書內容就不用評論瞭,給孩子買的書最在意字的大小,這本書收到後感覺字體稍小,盡管不是那種很小字的口袋書,但比其他書要字小,如果不是特彆在意的話,還是不錯的。書的紙張很好,是淡黃色,不是淡灰色的
