" Lord of the Flies  is one of my favorite books. That was a big influence on me as a teenager, I still read it every couple of years."  --Suzanne Collins, author of  The Hunger Games "As exciting, relevant, and thought-provoking now as it was when Golding published it in 1954." -- Stephen King "The most influential novel...since Salinger's  Catcher in the Rye ."  --Time "This 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   "Sparely 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, " Lord of the Flies  is one of my favorite books.
