Lord of the flies questions 1-7
Although it appears that Ralph and jack would become good friends strain is being placed on their friendship. The boys seem to be from two different world, "There was the brilliant world of hunting, tactics, fierce exhilaration, skill: and there was the world of longing and baffled common-sense"
TO what degree do you feel Jack is causing the break down of order on the island? Do you feel Ralph is being firm enough with Jack? What are Ralphs alternatives?
As Jack and Ralph have less and less in common, Piggy and Ralph are drawing closer and closer together. Has there been a change in either Ralph or Piggy since the beginning of the novel which might account for their becoming friendlier? In your opinion, how much do circumstances have to do with this closeness? if the boys were in England, with whom do you think Ralph would more likely become friends? Why?
