1.Free FallFree Fall
from Harvest/HBJ Book
Price: $10.40

Customer Review:
I am still under the spell of enchantment of this book. I picked it up by chance at a used-book store going out of business just because I had so enjoyed Lord of the Flies in high school. I don't think I have ever read anything that impacted me so much as the simplicity and painful beauty in... more info

from Bloom's Literary Criticism
Price: $40.50

Customer Review:
I had to read this book while I was in high school and thought it was just OK. I just reread it on my own and now that I'm an adult, it touched me more deeply. The bullying and cruelty these boys exhibit, the casual schadenfreude that escalates into violence, had a greater impact on me this time... more info

4.To the Ends of the Earth: A Sea TrilogyTo the Ends of the Earth: A Sea Trilogy
from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Price: $13.50

Customer Review:

The psychological and social class undercurrents of life aboard a "Ship of the Line" at the end of the golden age of British domination of the seas is the core of this facinating trilogy. William Golding is the Nobel winning author who is best known for his first book, Lord of the Flies. His... more info

5.The InheritorsThe Inheritors
from Harvest Books
Price: $10.40

Customer Review:
The Interitors is a brilliantly-themed novel, with a very daring style, but not as difficult to read as some reviewers would have it. I first read this around thirty years ago, and have never forgotten it. Less heavy-handed than Lord of the Flies, this is Golding's best work.

7.[no image]An Egyptian Journal
from Faber & Faber

Customer Review:
I haven't read Lord of the Flies since high school, but it was hard to believe this book was written by the same author. At age 72, Golding agrees to sail the Nile with his wife and "crew" and write a book about it. This creates an anxiety that surfaces throughout the book, like Seinfeld's show... more info

9.William Golding Three Novels: Includes Pincher Martin, Free Fall, the InheritorsWilliam Golding Three Novels: Includes Pincher Martin, Free Fall, the Inheritors
from MJF Books

Customer Review:
Like the other reviewer here, I was assigned this book in my junior year of high school by a well-meaning teacher who was so frustrated by his students' lack of interest (or comprehension) of Free Fall that he simply gave up. Three years later I picked my copy off the shelf and gave it a second try.... more info

from Perigee Trade
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
Well, most people in America have already read "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding, which is definitely a classic. So I'm not going to give a synopsis, just a general appraisal of the work.
The main characters (Ralph, Jack, Piggy, Roger, and many more) are very complex and very riveting. You... more info
