The conch symbolizes the society that they are trying to hold onto. This is important because as the boys go on they and loss part of their society they are able to hold onto it by the conch.   Whoever is talking is using the conch and no one is allowed to interrupt anyone, ralph also uses it to call a assemble. It is used during every meeting and they hold onto it and it tells everyone else to pay attention. This is what the conch shell symbolizes for and how it is used to keep the boys society.

lord of the flies diary

 dear diary, Hello my name is jack and today I will be expressing what happened today to my life. I am on a plane going home because they were evacuating us from boarding school due to the war when the plane I was on split in half and me and my choirs landed on a island. Their are many survivors most of my choir lived but their are no adults. We were called to the beach by a loud horn nose and it was the other survivors. Their is another boy and his name is ralph and I think he wants to be leader but we all know I should. His friend piggy is also very annoying and I think they are planning against me. So we had a vote for leader ralph won. They all want to know if were on a island so ralph my best friend Simon and myself all go check it out and we see a beast but it runs away. I swear to kill that beast for food and that was my day.  sincerely, jack

d-day journal

Wiliam golding was effected by d-day because of the way he saw life and men because he wasn’t sure about anyone's Morales anymore. He was effected in the way saw men because he wasn’t sure if they were born evil and grew up learning how to be nice or they were born good and learned how to do evil. He also learned that people can be very cruel for no reason. Golding questioned the goodness of mankind because of all the kill. He was feeling this way because of all the deaths he saw during d-day.   I believe that man are born both evil and good. I believe this because it depends on the person. there are some stories of people who help others without thinking of themselves and other people who love the misery of others. I also believe people can learn to be barbaric if they are good because of the way they see the world changes. They can also become civilized because of a life changing moment like going to jail.
