They say people change, but usually for the better. But this is not the case with our young English schoolchildren. A plane crash destined for evacuation changes the course of the lives of these groups of kids. These kids get stranded on an island far from any connection to the outside world. The only people the kids can rely on are themselves and each other, since they are not adults on the island. Without adult supervision and rules, these innocent boys, based on William Golding's novel Lord of the Flies, quickly transform from civilized to reckless savages. This change is most evident in Jack, the leader of the choir. Jack is a choir leader who degenerates into a ruthless savage. This progress in becoming a savage is slowly shown by his change in clothing, his feelings about rules, and his feelings about killing the pig. The first glimpse we get of Jack is when Ralph, another boy on the island, finds a shell and uses it. call all the guys together. Hearing the conch, a group dressed in dark clothing descends towards the beach. This group, the choir, is described as “something dark […] groping” (19). Using the word “dark” to describe this group automatically shows that these groups of kids are not good but rather the dark and evil kids of the island. The choir “marched approximately in step in two parallel lines” (19), forming a belligerent group. This shows that the group's leader, Jack, has complete control of the group. Jack is described as "the boy who controlled them...his cap badge was gold" (19). Having a cap badge that is a different color than the rest of the group distinguishes Jack's status and the status that the rest of the boys have in the choir. Jack radiates complete autonomy... middle of paper... their primitive ways. Jack changes throughout the story through his clothing, his feelings about rules, and his feelings about hunting. William Golding uses Jack to symbolize ferocity and violence. Jack is also a representation of the dangers of being power hungry. Golding suggests that within every human being there is a struggle between right (good) and wrong (evil) and it is up to the individual to decide which course they want to embrace. As much as Jack tries to follow the moral code society has taught him, he ultimately embraces his inner evil. This inner evil is unleashed mainly due to his ignorance and desires. Golding also suggests that if a person were placed in a civilization where law and order were not established, then the person would revert to their primitive ways. Civilization keeps everything in order and keeps people from going crazy.
