Question

In Lord of the Flies chapter 8-10, what kinds of words does the narrator use to describe the boys in the hunting party? What tone is used?

Answer 1

In Lord of the Flies, the narrator uses different adjectives such as skeptical, confident, sensible, passionate childish and irrationate – among others – so as to depict the boys’ behavior. The tone used by the author is rather ironic because of the archetypes he used in order to poke fun of society.
