William Golding was born in Cornwall in 1911 and was educated at Marlborough Grammar School and at Brasenose College, Oxford. Before he became a schoolmaster he was an actor, a lecturer, a small-boat sailor and a musician. A now rare volume, Poems, appeared in 1934. In 1940 he joined the Royal Navy and saw action against battleships, submarines and aircraft. He was present at the sinking of the Bismarck. He finished the war as a Lieutenant in command of a rocket ship, which was off the French coast for the D-day invasion, and later at the island of Welcheren. After the war he returned to Bishop Wordsworth's School in Salisbury and was there when his first novel, Lord of the Flies, was published in 1954. He gave up teaching in 1961.
Lord of the Flies was filmed by Peter Brook in 1963. Golding listed his hobbies as music, chess, sailing, archaeology and classical Greek (which he taught himself). Many of these subjects appear in his essay collections The Hot Gates and A Moving Target. He won the Booker Prize for his novel Rites of Passage in 1980, and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1983. He was knighted in 1988. He died at his home in the summer of 1993. The Double Tongue, a novel left in draft at his death, was published in June 1995. - See more at: http://www.faber.co.uk/catalog/author/william-golding#sthash.Hos5xYe4.dpuf

在读这部小说之前,我倒是建议应该先去某大型机械制造厂去看一看,深入厂房和车间,去看看那些精细奇妙的机械,看它们如何从复杂至极的图纸上变成让人瞠目结舌的样子。那些庞大的,高妙的,冷冰冰的东西经过层层捶打改造,构成了人类几乎无法驾驭的锡安之齿。你会由衷的被眼前...
评分The Lord of Flies,在基督教传说中它是苍蝇之王Beelzebub,在某个著名游戏中它是大魔头Baal,在这部小说中它是一个叮满苍蝇的猪头。 “恶之出于人,犹如蜜之出于蜂!”Golding码了一生的英文单词,最后冷冷丢下这句话,不留一点余地;世人却早已见怪不怪。恶的故事,每天都已...
评分 评分书中的杰克不知道为什么一出现就给人一种令人害怕不受管束的一种印象,似乎他像是人类最古老文明中残留的那点野蛮性质的星星之火,当孩子们被战争的硝烟带到这个荒无人烟的小岛上时,这点星星之火便不受压抑的向四周蔓延,再逼迫着烘烤着每一个幼小的心灵,而因为害怕恐惧...
评分本次借着文学名著导读课程的契机,拜读了戈尔丁先生的代表之作《蝇王》。得来颇不容易,图书馆去了三次均未果。只好在网上找来电子版本,哪知实在无法适应电脑的屏幕,眼睛酸账,脑袋疼痛,很是烦恼。终于在第四次去图书馆时,发现有一本被还了回来。就像狼见了落单的白羊,扑...

A plane crashes on an uninhabited island and the only survivors, a group of schoolboys, assemble on the beach and wait to be rescued. By day they inhabit a land of bright fantastic birds and dark blue seas, but at night their dreams are haunted by the image of a terrifying beast.
In this, his first novel, William Golding gave the traditional adventure story an ironic, devastating twist. The boys' delicate sense of order fades, and their childish fears are transformed into something deeper and more primitive. Their games take on a horrible significance, and before long the well-behaved party of schoolboys has turned into a tribe of faceless, murderous savages.
First published in 1954, Lord of the Flies is now recognized as a classic, one of the most celebrated of all modern novels.
