    In this adventure story about a group of schoolboys stranded on a deserted island, William Golding explores the dark side of humanity and the savagery that surfaces when social structure is broken down, and rules, ideals, and values are lost. New critical essays on Lord of the Flies are supplemented by a chronology of the author's life, a bibliography, and notes about the essay contributors

Kafka has been said to have offered everything from a psychological parable of the Oedipal struggle to a caricature of psychological readings. In this collection of new critical essays, one of the enduring classics of twentieth-century world literature is once again examined in all its complexity and resonance

    Charles Dickens is sometimes called the "man who invented Christmas," and his enduring and much-adapted tale has proved a central addition to the literature that has grown up around the Christmas season. With its ghostly apparitions and poignant representation of the reformation of a miser's heart, Dickens's story contributed classic characters to the literary canon, in the form of Tiny Tim, Jacob Marley, Bob Cratchit, and its central figure, Ebenezer Scrooge, the originator of the "Bah! Humbug!" Harold Bloom introduces this brand-new volume of critical excerpts that focus
