The Lord of the Flies is a novel by William Golding. Before the book was finally published, it was turned down by more than 20 publishers. The book is about a group of school boys who create their own civilization. Despite the fact that The Lord of the Flies was a bestseller, the novel has been banned and challenged--based on the "excessive violence and bad language." For his body of work, William Golding received the Nobel Prize for literature and he was knighted.
