Body<\/p>\n
The author seems to be responding to \u2018Coral Island\u2019 (Bruce 56). This is an Island portrayed in the novel, with a group of shipwrecked boys who made Christians though out of cannibals. They hunt pigs down though they don\u2019t spill over blood, and later they are rescued cheerfully, signifying the darker side of man as well as the true source of the devil.<\/p>\n
The author uses different characters to bring out in contrast the opposite side of ma. Ralph in the novel represents common sense and sanity. On the other hand, Jack seems to love power, hunting and blood portraying the hope that human beings have regardless of their circumstances. This signifies man\u2019s efforts to better their lives in a resistant world. <\/p>\n
The author has brought out the picture of real mankind in the character of Piggy. This character is portrayed as a personification of reason and intelligence. He is used by the author as an inventor: He discovers the real nature of the devil (Bruce 58). This character connotes that there is hope for mankind even though situations may look worse.<\/p>\n
