William Golding, Author



Born in 1911, Golding was the son of an English schoolmaster, a
many-talented man who believed strongly in science and rational
thought. Golding often described his father's overwhelming
influence on his life. The author graduated from Oxford University
in 1935 and spent four years (later described by Golding as having
been "wasted") writing, acting,. and producing for a next small
London theater. Golding himself became schoolmaster for a year,
after marrying Ann Brookfield in 1939 and before entering the
British Royal Navy in 1940.
From an unknown schoolmaster in 1954, when Lord of the Flies
was first published…. In 1983 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in
Literature…. Golding died of a heart attack in 1993.
http://www.monmouth.com/~literature/LOTF/student/Bio.htm
29
Author’s Purpose

“…finally getting the idea for Lord of the Flies after
reading a bedtime boys adventure story [The Coral Island
(1857) by R.M. Ballantyne] to his small children. Golding
wondered out loud to his wife whether it would be a good
idea to write such a story but to let the characters "behave
as they really would." His wife thought that would be a
"first class idea." With that encouragement, Golding found
that writing the story, the ideas for which had been
germinating in his mind for some time, was simply a
matter of getting it down on paper.”

The English heavy metal band Iron Maiden composed a song about the novel,
with the title "Lord of the Flies".
The American hard rock band Aerosmith composed a song about a pimp and
his stable of women, with the title "Lord of the Thighs" which was a take off
and play on Lord of the Flies.
The debut studio album, Boy, by Irish rock band U2 was loosely based on the
novel's theme of childhood corruption, and the final song on the album,
"Shadows and Tall Trees," takes its title from the novel's chapter of the same
name. Additionally, some printings of the book's cover are similar to the cover
of the album.[9]
American punk rock band Bad Religion referenced the novel in the song "1000
More Fools", from their 1988 album Suffer: "I've seen the rapture in a starving
baby's eyes, Inchoate beatitude, the Lord of the Flies".
American punk rock group The Offspring referenced the title of the book on
their song "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid" off their latest studio effort, Rise and

Robert A. Heinlein's Tunnel in the Sky, published in 1955, can be seen
as a rebuttal to Lord of the Flies as it concerns a group of teenagers
stranded on an uninhabited planet who manage to create a functional
tribal society.[7]
Stephen King has stated that the Castle Rock in Lord of the Flies was
the inspiration for the town of the same name that has appeared in a
number of his novels. The book itself also appears prominently in his
novels Hearts in Atlantis and Cujo.[8] King's fictional town in turn
inspired the name of Rob Reiner's production company, Castle Rock
Entertainment.
The DC Comics series Salvation Run is an adaptation of the "Lord of
the Flies" concept with all the major DC Supervillains being marooned
on an Alien planet.
The young adult novel Gone, by Michael Grant, is closely related, with
all of the adults and teens above 14 disappearing, leaving the rest to 122
fend for and attempt to govern themselves.
Television Inspired by LotF
(according to wikipedia)




Lord of the Flies inspired Sunrise Animation's classic anime series Infinite
Ryvius, which follows the lives of nearly 500 teenagers stranded aboard a
space battleship.
Also the "Das Bus" episode of The Simpsons is based on this book. The
episode Kamp Krusty also has several elements from Lord of the Flies as well
(a pig's head on a spear, kids using primitive weapons and wearing war paint
and a burning effigy).
The "Club SpongeBob" episode of SpongeBob SquarePants, in which he,
Patrick, and Squidward are stranded in the woods and rely on the "magic
conch" for guidance.
The ABC television show Lost has also shown loose similarities to the book.
