Beamishtheir's 'Hope In Tomorrow When The War'
Analytical ExpositionEmerald BeamishTheir lives will never be the same again after what has happened to all of them.
Tomorrow, when the war began has a sense of hope, whereas Lord of the Flies promotes despair. When two girls, from Tomorrow, When the War Began, decide to spend their Christmas holidays in a bush with a group of friends, they don 't expect a war to erupt in their small town of Wirrawee. Luckily, they see light at the end of the tunnel and do their best to get through the ups and downs of real life in a war. But this isn 't the case for a troop of boys, in Lord of the Flies, when they become stranded on an island after their plane crashed. Before they knew it, a war had broken out between two groups. In their minds, they knew they needed to survive because they were going to be on that island for a long time, maybe even their 'whole lives '.

despair, through relationships with friends and family, leadership to do with respect and sticking together, and lastly the morality of war.
In Tomorrow, When the War Began, the characters show hope when thinking about their loved ones, but throughout Lord of the Flies there 's only despair when it comes to wondering when they 'll see civilisation again.
As a result, the group from Tomorrow, When the War Began risk their lives in search of their family and friends. However, in Lord of the Flies, they give up on remembering their past and get on with their new lives leaving no hope for the future. For example, when one of the characters, Jack, decides he wants his own 'tribe ', he leaves, taking other members with him. Jack 's relationship with the other people in his tribe is poor and not only that, but Jack is using them to make himself feel more powerful. While, Ellie, from Tomorrow, When the War Began, shows optimism, imagining what her parents would be like whilst being trapped by the soldiers. This proves that relationships certainly contribute in endorsing hope in Tomorrow, When the War Began, and despair, in Lord of the
Flies.
Leadership also has an important role in both the film, Lord of the Flies and the novel, Tomorrow, When the War Began. The teenagers in the book know they 're in good hands when it comes to leaders, but in the film, there are two leaders with different ideas. This evokes a war which leads to deaths and sadness within both groups, creating despair for all them. For instance, when Jack, the leader of the rebels, starts his own tribe, everyone becomes his friend because he has more power and authority because of the activities they do, which make the others look up to him as a leader. The other group, with 'good standards ', become two people with nothing to do but sit on a beach and wonder. They should be sticking together and relying on group cooperation, like in Tomorrow, When the War Began, and although there is one leader in that group, they still all contribute ideas and pull their weight within the camp. Consequently, leadership is yet another factor used to prove that Tomorrow, When the War Began has a sense of hope, whilst Lord of the Flies stages despair.
The morality of war is sudden for both the characters of Tomorrow, When the War Began and the boys in Lord of the Flies. As the deaths in Tomorrow, When the War Began occur, they realise that this really is a war and that they need to fight to survive, instead, the boys in Lord of the Flies don 't worry too much and go on with everyday living in the jungle. Like, when Ellie blows up 3 soldiers it affects her highly but she only did it in order to protect herself and friends. She builds up hope for the rest of group when they realise they can fight this together and get through it. Whereas, Lord of the Flies is a lot more childish and they don 't put much thought into it, for example when they killed Simon, they all ran up to him and speared him to death. The only people affected were his friends Ralph, who wasn 't killed, and Piggy, who was killed later on while he was trying to bring the group together. This left Ralph, feeling hopeless with no intentions to think about what the future held for him. He was on his own and highly vulnerable to Jack 's tribe, who wanted him gone to leave them to do what they like without being pressured into becoming one again. Thus, the morality of war supplies evidence which proves that Tomorrow, When the War Began has a hopeful tone and Lord of the Flies has a sense of despair.
Tomorrow, When the War began is hopeful, instead of promoting despair like Lord of the Flies does. Relationships are keeping the characters in Tomorrow, When the War Began, together and hopeful for the future, unlike Lord of the Flies, where they can 't be bothered even trying to have some kind of hope. Leadership is leading the group, in Tomorrow, When the War Began, in the right direction, but for the boys in Lord of the Flies, it has led them to destruction of themselves and their friendships. As for the morality of war, it is impacting on both of them greatly but for different reasons: the characters in Tomorrow, When the War Began take it more easily because it 's more about survival, whereas, Lord of the Flies focuses on hatred and fearfulness.
