Lord of the Flies: Golding spends a lot of time describing the island. Knowing that authors are intentional with their writing, explain how the figurative language used to describe the setting contributes to the mood of the story.

Answer and Explanation:

By reading Golding's descriptions of the environment in which the boys find themselves, we can see that although the author describes the exuberant scenery of the forest through lyrical descriptions, he mixes it with darker adjectives and a figurative tongue that creates an ominous sensation to as the book passes. This all reinforces the idea that even though the environment is beautiful, its wild and completely bewildering nature contributes to the loss of civility of the boys and all the violence and foolishness that they present, contributing greatly to the dark and disturbing theme of the story.
