Lord of the Flies is not a rousing adventure. It suffers from a lot of What Do You Mean It's Not Symbolic (or, to be more respectful, it's a book with WDYMINT, if you're in the US, or a What Do You Mean It's Not Symbolic book, if you're in the UK), and a lot of it makes very little literal sense, which would work better if the symbolic meaning were itself cogent and well-argued.
