The Permanence of the Message of William Golding's Fables
Résumé (en anglais)
The author refers to Golding's novels as fables, as they function on more than one level of significance. According to the author's interpretation of Lord of the Flies, the main meaning of the novel is not a pessimistic one. Consequently, man and society are not inherently evil. It is a novel that raises awareness, enhancing humans' capacity to consider all things rationally.
