Scene Summary and Context
In William Golding's Lord of the Flies, a group of boys stranded on a deserted island must organize themselves to survive. Among the main characters are Ralph, who is chosen as the leader and emphasizes order and rescue; Jack, who seeks power and becomes increasingly aggressive; and Piggy, who is intelligent but physically weak and often marginalized. The story explores themes of civilization versus savagery, leadership, and moral choices. In the opening scenes, Ralph is elected leader, symbolizing order, but Jack’s desire for control causes conflict. Piggy offers wisdom and scientific knowledge, yet experiences social rejection. As tensions rise, each character's traits influence their actions and the group's fate. This excerpt highlights the initial dynamics that set the stage for the unfolding drama and power struggles among the boys.
