Dark portrayal of some basic but true realities of human nature.
We often glorify humanity as a good thing, but what is reality, and what would happen if we are left in a lawless situation?
How many of us would succumb to herd mentality, and how many would stand against the fear of being outcasted? How really different are kids from adults in dealing with situations?

Short and wonderful read that makes you wonder lot of such things.

I absolutely loved this book, and I would totally recommend it! I had to read this book for school, and just WOW! The most impactful thing about the book that I can say about the book is Piggy!!! If you have read the book you will know what I am talking about, but if not read it then you will know.
