«El Señor de las Moscas» is the novel by William Golding published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
Around thirty boys are left isolated on a desert island. The group's coexistence becomes an exploration of human aggression and the fragility of social norms, and the story offers a critique of repressive education and the controls that sustain civilization.
The work is a translation by Carmen Vergara of the English original «Lord of the Flies», published in 1954. This edition belongs to the El libro de bolsillo collection (Biblioteca Golding).
Common reading in secondary schools, suitable for young readers and for those interested in classics and dystopias.
