Lord of the Flies: (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)

This is one of the most incredible books I’ve ever read. It’s thought-provoking, well written, and kept me engaged from beginning to end. The story has so much depth, and it really makes you think about human nature long after you’ve finished reading. It’s a classic for a reason, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a powerful, unforgettable read.

This is not a review of the book itself, just the e-book version. I read it and also listened to an unabridged audiobook read by the author himself, and did not notice any discrepancies. I found no annoying typos or font alignment issues. Seemed to be true to the original text. Good addition to the Kindle library for a low price.

Great book. Just picked up a new copy. Haven't read it since middle school. It's still a great read. This is one you recommend.

It's so hard finding a nice cover for this book. I was kinda upset my choice was for paperback. But I am picky for my books, so I went along even though it was paperback. I was not expecting the book to look and feel very nice. It is so nice I am happy it's paperback and not hardcover. For every book lover that loves having good looking books, I really recommend this one. It looks amazing and even the feel is amazing. I was very pleasantly surprised.

This is a nicely presented paperback with coarse-cut pages which give it an antique feel. Please to have it in the library.

Classic story. Well made. My daughter loved it

I loved the book, but it came in with the pages looking like they had been cut wrong. Looked like the edges were cut by a dull knife.

Great size and works like a book should!

A brilliant novel. Particularly, love what they’ve done with the cover and pages; it resonates with the rawness of the book

Muy bonita portada

Livro fantástico! Li quando era criança e agora comprei para minha filha — ela adorou.Achei um pouco caro quando encomendei, mas, quando chegou, fiquei muito satisfeita com a edição. É realmente muito bonita. Gosto especialmente das páginas cortadas de forma irregular. Já tenho vários livros nesse estilo e acho que dá um ar mais “orgânico” e especial ao livro.Vi algumas reviews de pessoas achando que as páginas irregulares eram um defeito, mas não são: é proposital e bastante comum em edições estrangeiras. No Brasil nunca tinha visto esse tipo de acabamento, então imagino que muita gente não esteja acostumada.Enfim, uma edição muito bonita de um livro que adoro. Valeu a pena!

On ne juge pas au physique, mais j'ai clairement choisi cette édition pour la première de couverture, que je trouvais super jolie.La (mauvaise) surprise était cachée : les pages du livre sont coupées au sécateur.Un choix esthétique qui fera frémir tous les toqués (comme moi) qui aiment les trucs bien droits, bien parallèles.

A wonderful tale to make you think. Excellently written, a true classic.
