摘要
William Golding's Lord of the Flies has been interpreted from different perspective. This paper attempts a biblical reading of the novel by finding the prototypes of the characters. The first section explores the direct parallels of the novel and the Scripture; the second section probes into how and why Golding reversely uses the biblical allusions; the last section concludes that sin is ingrained in human heart that it might be impossible to eradicate.
