Lord of the Flies

Civilization's fragility through stranded schoolboys' chaos.

"Lord of the Flies" dives deep into the darker side of human nature, peeling back the layers of civilized society to show what could lurk beneath. This book isn't just a story about boys on an island; it's a thought-provoking journey that challenges readers to consider the fine line between order and savagery. It's a timeless exploration that resonates with those fascinated by psychology, ethics, and the human condition.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
