What is the climax of this novel? What happens? How do the events of this novel make you feel?
The climax of this novel is when Roger kills Piggy by rolling a huge rock on him. Piggy and Ralph set off together with Sam and Eric to retrieve the stolen specs. However, when they arrived at the castle rock, the members of Jack’s tribe are guarding the place. When Jack’s whole tribe arrive with Jack in the lead, Piggy is killed by Roger who rolled a huge rock from over Piggy’s head. He was killed because he spoke boldly for what he believed was right. Although almost nobody agreed with him, he tried his best to tell them that savagery was bad and the importance of a peaceful society and democracy. Although he dies, I believe that he was brave and stood out for what is right till the very end.
The events of this novel make me feel eventually hopeless and sorrowful. At the beginning of the novel, the boys seemed so innocent and nice. Who would have believed they had and evil side inside them? They seemed to have a great time enjoying all the food and the environment of the island. However, as the events go on, the boys become more and more violent and barbaric. They ignore the rules that Ralph keeps trying to tell them. They act as if they don’t care about being rescued or not. I believe that at the end, when they run away from Ralph and follow Jack, they really do not care. The events were more and more shocking as they proceeded. First, an accident occurred and a little boy died. Then, Simon was killed by a whole bunch of boys screaming and dancing in madness. At last, the event that gave me the most shock was the murder of Piggy. He was killed by Roger, and Roger must have known that this isn’t the right thing to do. I just couldn’t believe that those innocent boys at the begging became so violent.
