@j_bertolotti Fairly sure Lord of the flies was written AFTER a book which had stranded boys forming a society that worked....and was a reaction to that book saying na this is what would really happen, can't remember that book name edit: First, William Golding wrote Lord of the Flies because he just didn’t buy the varnished version of events contained in an 1857 adventure novel, The Coral Island: A Tale of the Pacific Ocean (RM Ballentyne)
