I read this for my English class. I had to write 12, can you believe that 12, essays analyzing the book.
I read the book 4 times before I understood it and started enjoying it. I guess I'm not too much of an adept reader; I did NOT understand the metaphors in the book until my 4th time around. When I didn't understand the book, I hated it. It seems horrible and depressing without a real reason behind it.
By my 4th time, I can't say I understood it completely, but I did understand most of it. It has so much more meaning to it than I originally thought. I really like the book now. Golding uses a lot of nice and vivid imagery which really adds a lot to the book. And the idea behind the story itself is so thought-provoking, well to me anyway.
