It's funny. It's one of those books that almost everybody has to read at school, on both sides of the Atlantic, which is quite rare. Usually, if I ask, I find that it's the only Golding that a person has read which is rather a shame as it's atypical and, IMO, by no means his best work. The main result of forcing kids to read it seems to be to put them off Golding for life.
