LOTF Thesis

My thesis is; Golding uses Biblical symbolism to further define the plot for Lord of The Flies. I chose this quote from LOTF to exemplify my thesis. "When he was secure in the middle he was in a little cabin screened off from the open space by a few leaves. He squatted down, parted the leaves, and looked out into the clearing. "

    I chose this quote because it is one of my personal favorite quotes in the book. I feel that this contributes to my thesis because amid all the chaos Simon finds sanctuary in a little space that he has found.  Amidst all of the chaos he is facing he finds a safe place to relax and reflect. I feel that this is heaven because amongst all the chaos in the real world heaven is the safe, eternal place.
