The date is 1954, just a few years after the end of World War II, the great war still fresh and painful in the eyes of the living; on the shelves is William Golding's published novel Lord of the Flies. This novel was written to tell the story of a group of young boys stranded on an island after their plane crashes sometime after they left for their precautionary evacuation from London, England. The idea of ​​a real evacuation was only mentioned and experimented with if an action plan was developed if the need really arose. Those who would be evacuated would be mothers, children and the disabled from vulnerable areas such as London, England, which was hit hard during the Blitz of 1940, where Germany bombed the city every night continuously for an entire year . The boys in this novel were evacuated because of this blitz and, as any reader would assume, a leader would be needed, and two will come to power unable to defend themselves or be under each other's leadership with such completely different points of view. This sounds awfully familiar for a novel published a few years after the end of World War II. These leaders, Ralph and Jack, along with their fellow evacuees, Maurice, Rodger, Piggy, and even the little kids, all correlate with great leaders and their followers during World War II. Ralph is the all-powerful protagonist of the novel and in relation to World War II, would best represent the powerful Chamberlain, Prime Minister of England. England, after World War I, became stronger, just and a major leader than ever before. He adopted universal suffrage for all for the first time in history (Fraser), and that being said, he is very important in his role. Ralph is a lot like Chamberlain and Eng... middle of paper ... shouldn't have to fight, not get involved. The group of teenagers described in the novel best correspond to the main leaders of World War II: Chamberlain, Hitler and his officers, as well as Simon and Piggy, symbolizing the Jewish community on which Hitler blamed all of Germany's problems.
