.... on this uninhabited tropical island in the Pacific Ocean makes the transition from carefully organized democratic reasoning to feeling-driven madness. The climax of this transition is marked by the death of Piggy and the destruction of the conch shell, which has very similar symbolism to Piggy. The gradual shift is also measured by various incidents that obstruct Piggy's mental reasoning, such as the breaking of his eye glasses, and the loss of the boys' faith in him. Piggy's character is used to show how even the best solution to a problem can easily be overlooked because of the lack of respect, pre-established prejudices, and the lack of matur .....

For example, when Holden and Sally went to the show he said, "At the end of the first act we went out with all the other jerks for a cigarette. What a deal that was. You never saw so many phonies in all your life, everybody smoking their ears off and talking about the play so that everybody could hear how sharp they were."

Though it was ordered for Hester to wear the letter, it was still her own choice to make it in a vivid scarlet, "so fantastically embroidered and illuminated upon her bosom." Hester chose red as the color of her brand of shame, to declare to the rest of the townspeople that she is prepared to acknowledge her sin, instead of denying it; she could have chosen to wear her "A" in a plain and nondistinc .....

On the day before he leaves when he wakes up, Manolin, his helper, comes to his aid with food a .....
