Lord of the Flies by William Golding, Lois Lowry (Afterword), Jennifer Buehler (Contribution by)

A fictional staple in the literature world, Lord of the Flies will have you questioning your own motives and desires in a lawless world. An island without adults sounds like a dream for children. But as the boys become more brutal in nature, one cataclysmic event will forever alter their lives.

Golding’s iconic 1954 novel, now with a new foreword by Lois Lowry, remains one of the greatest books ever written for young adults and an unforgettable classic for readers of any age.
 
This edition includes a new Suggestions for Further Reading by Jennifer Buehler.

At the dawn of the next world war, a plane crashes on an uncharted island, stranding a group of schoolboys. At first, with no adult supervision, their freedom is something to celebrate. This far from civilization they can do anything they want. Anything. But as order collapses, as strange howls echo in the night, as terror begins its reign, the hope of adventure seems as far removed from reality as the hope of being rescued.
