Essay
In my opinion, the ending of the book was not happy, but at the same time it was. Jack’s tribe which includes Roger and some littluns were going to hunt Ralph and put his head on a stick as they have done to the sow’s head. Nobody could help him. Simon and Piggy were dead, Samneric were serving to Jack as prisoners. Poor Ralph left all alone. He had three different strategies for escaping the hunters. First – climb a tree, second – burst the line like a boar, third – hide so well that the line would pass without discovering him. Eventually Jack’s tribe could not find Ralph and they decided to set the island on fire. The trees they got their fruits from were burned, and probably the entire island was burned, because the fire tends to spread out throughout all area. Truth is that they all could die, just like that, through all the time they had lived together and they just die in a stupid fire for nothing. When Ralph ran out of the burning jungles he burned into naval officer’s feet. So guess what? Yes, they were rescued now, but if they were not? What if they all were burned in that fire? Jack’s tribe ran out of the jungles after Ralph and stopped immediately. They were overwhelmed and shocked and started crying. The bitter part is that the naval officer just thought that it was only a childish game, pretending they are savages who hunt their victim. It was not taken serious that they were trying to kill themselves. In my point of view, these boys are just lucky. When Ralph wanted everyone to be rescued, but it seems that it was not important for Jack, all he wanted to do was hunt and kill, they still were saved in the end of the book. I realize that being on the uninhabited island for so long is a torture, no one to take care of them, no adults, no normal food, no television, no school, and young boys with their imagination they have seen in movies, or have read in books, started to act like savages. Jack ran wild, maybe
