Ch. 9: A View To A Death

Analysis: 

Any last hopes of being civilized people have all been erased and replaced by savage instincts.  This happened because Jack has created his own tribe that most of the boys joined simply because it seems more fun.  However, this is causing them to forget about the rules they created and making them begin acting more and more barbaric.  For example, they all end up killing Simon because they mistake him for the beast.  In my opinion, this shows that they now have become full out savages since they killed one of their own people. Also, I find it hard to believe that they never noticed the person they were attacking was actually one of them.  Overall, I predict this will only be the start of the deaths among the boys.


This picture shows the aftermath of what happened when the boys
mistaked Simon for the beast.
