Lord of the Flies- William Golding
This allegorical novel by Nobel Prize winning author William Golding was first published in 1954. It is both a coming of age story and a commentary on human nature. It is the story of a group of boys trapped on a dessert island who attempt to govern themselves and fail with disastrous effects. It was banned by the Toronto School Board for its use of the word “niggers.”
