*What is the climax of the novel? What happens? How do the events of this novel make you feel?*
In my opinion, I think that the climax of the novel was the scene when Jack’s crew breaks in the shelters and steals Piggy’s glasses. I thought this was the climax because the glasses symbolized a signal of hope for the rescue. The glasses were used to make a fire so that the Jack and Piggy would have the slightest possibility in getting rescued. The glasses were the only hope for them because they were the only ones who believed in the true path of life. What I mean by this is that they were the only ones who were willing to be rescued, and live fuller life like normal kids, unlike how Jack’s crew acts. Jack and his hunters thought that having fun and eating meat in the island was living a good life, but as I see it, it’s just dumb. They won’t go anywhere but be trapped by their choice.
When the glasses were raided by Jack’s crew, the disastrous event portrays the point-of-no-return. Since they took the glasses, there is no more need of hope or determination in being rescued. First, there is no way they can steal the glasses back without intellectual tactics, which Ralph and Piggy haven’t got. They have no special weapons or access to high technology in order to stop them. Besides, if they did go back to steal it, there is no way they would come back alive because they are outnumbered. After Jack took Piggy’s glasses, it left Piggy blind and unseen. Because of Piggy’s blindness, I thought that Piggy was the only hope for Ralph. Right after he was blind, he had no sight, which made his mind baffle and confused. When Ralph had some sort of trouble, Piggy would resolve the conflict for him because he had the brains to analyze everything for him. Now, without Piggy’s glasses, it seems as if Ralph is on his own, because Piggy is blinded in his intellect. He cannot help Ralph because his glasses left him. The glasses that Piggy wore made him strong, have good vision and smart, but without it, I think that he is weak. The glasses symbolized science and intellect that Piggy possessed, but it was taken away.
This event made me feel angry and hot. Not merely because Jack stole the glasses, but he was using them for a different purpose. It was as if he was playing with them, because he was using them to cook meat, when he should be using it with more important things. The important things are what Ralph says but all of Jack and his crew neglect him. This shows that he is disrespectful and neglectful, but as well as showing no apathy and concern. Jack confidently steals the glasses in Piggy’s face during the middle of the night. Even though Piggy remains blind without his glasses, they aren’t returned when they were used.
