This week in class we finished reading chapter 7 of Lord of the Flies. I think that this was a great but very disturbing chapter. I found it disturbing because 'as a game' the boys beat on the boy Roger and treat him as though he is a boar. I found this to be horrific because the boys are becoming wild and brutal and seem to have completely lost they're seperation between right and wrong as well as civilized and uncivilized. Watching Ralph go from the 'caring' boy to the hunter was an interesting transformation and you can see how Jack went so far away from 'normal' so quickly.
I found this chapter to be very interesting and i think that there is going to be a great turning point in this next part of the book.
