The conch shell in a
way symbolizes the way the boys used to live back when they were living in
England. When Ralph comes up with the rule that whoever has the shell can talk
uninterrupted, it showed that they need some sort of "order" because chaos
can cause problems. Even when the boys are happy about their freedom, they
still choose a leader, just like in government and rules will lead to order. If the boys did not have structure, there will be disorder and no one will get off the island. Tuesday, March 28, 2017
