Understanding Shame and Identity in 'Lord of the Flies'

In Chapters 9 and 10 of 'Lord of the Flies', key characters grapple with the consequences of their actions. The boys are confronted with the identity of "the beast," which reveals deeper truths about human nature. Ralph, Piggy, and Samneric's shame after the dance signifies their awareness of moral decline. Piggy’s advice to Ralph to forget Simon's death raises questions about wisdom and coping with guilt. This analysis explores the implications of these themes and their significance to the overall narrative.
