«Senyor de les mosques» is the novel by William Golding, published by Edicions 62 in paperback, with 224 pages and text in Catalan.
A group of British children survive a plane crash and are left stranded on a desert island. Without adults, they try to organize themselves, but coexistence falls apart and violence ultimately prevails. It is an allegory about human nature, the loss of innocence and the fragile limits of civilization.
Originally published in English in 1954 as «Lord of the Flies», this Catalan edition, translated by Manuel de Pedrolo, belongs to the El Cangur collection.
A common reading in schools and a reference for readers interested in twentieth-century classics and survival narratives.
