About This Item
London: Pearson Education/Longman, 2000 9780582434462. Hardback. Fine. Illustrated cover. No DW. No annotations or inscriptions. 296 pages. With notes on each chapter. Hill's novels are written in a descriptive gothic style. "Hooper had known, from the very first moment he had looked into Kingshaw's face, that it would all be easy, that he would always be able to make him afraid." This tragic tale of two isolated children explores the nature of cruelty and the power of evil. Winner of the Somerset Maugham Award in 1971, this tale is linked in its poignancy and humour to "Lord the the Flies".
