“The
horror, the horror!” - Lord of the Flies
Lord of the flies relates very
strongly to the quote
“The horror, the horror”. The main characters
in the Lord of the Flies go through many problems and have to make
tough choices to conquer inefficient difficulties. “Not scared so
much as paralysed; hung up here immovable on the top of the
diminishing, moving mountain” pg. 135. The boys are clearly very
frightened in this situation being stuck on a island and having to
scrounge around for food, so that's a great relation to this quote.
Piggy and Ralph stay strong for as long as they could until the death
of Piggy traumatized all the boys. “Piggy whispered. 'And the
fire.'” pg. 197. “The horror, the horror!” has a strong
relation to this story because I think that the feeling you get with
this quote represents worry and being afraid, and considering that's
how the boys are feeling throughout almost the entire book, this
shows a very close relation to the two.
