William Golding was losing his faith in humanity.
Serving aboard a British destroyer in World War II,
the philosophy teacher turned Royal Navy lieutenant was constantly confronted
by the atrocities of his fellow man.
And when he returned to England to find Cold War superpowers
threatening one another with nuclear annihilation,
he was forced to interrogate the very roots of human nature.
These musings on the inevitability of violence
would inspire his first and most famous novel: "Lord of the Flies."
After being rejected by 21 publishers,
the novel was finally published in 1954.
It takes its title from Beelzebub, a demon associated with pride and war—
two themes very much at the heart of Golding’s book.
The novel was a bleak satire of a classic island adventure story,
a popular genre where young boys get shipwrecked in exotic locations.
