Why Are People Essentially Good In Lord Of The Flies
In the Lord of the Flies the author, William Golding, thinks that humans are essentially evil because of what he saw in war. I disagree with this I think that people are really are essentially good.
In the Lord of the Flies it is showed not often because of what the author himself thought but there are still examples of people being good. When Simon was helping Ralph with the shelters he didn’t have to do that he didn’t really gain anything from it but he did it anyways. Another example is that in the book it is said that people made fun of Piggy at his school and even on the island people weren’t always the kindest to him but he was still helpful and kind to everyone. My final example is that even when Simon was hurt and could barely walk
