The country was attempting to come back from war, and the culture reflected a bleak, disheartening feeling. His family believe that this adaptation will do full justice to these qualities.Following World War II and the horrible devastation in Europe, especially in London, Britain began to rebuild.
My father was proud of the novel and had faith in its power and honesty. Our family has been encouraged by our discussions with them – and as a result we put our trust in their skills and enthusiasm. I believe he would welcome the freshness and vigor with which Jack and Joel undertake the project, and he would certainly be touched by their intense commitment.
He understood that its relevance would not die away. Judy Golding Carver, William Golding’s daughter, said: “My father wrote the novel in a passionate, visionary response to the aftermath of war. It is a TV show we hope families will watch together on the sofa and unpick just as I unpicked the book with my Mum as a kid.” “It is a book, I think, full of love as well as cruelty, about how we survive as people and the ways we undo ourselves. Soon after, he found a way to Judy Carver, and then brought me in and I am so delighted they’ve trusted us with this incredible book. Joel shot up and said he’d been pestering the Golding family’s representatives for years. Thorne added: “Joel and I were talking in his kitchen and he said ‘go on, name it, the one you’d like to do but don’t think you ever will get the chance to,’ and I said ‘Lord of the Flies,’ a book that left a scar on me like no other.
He has written some of the more detailed and affecting portraits of human beings one could hope to encounter.” “It is a great honor and joy to be taking responsibility for the adaptation of such a precious novel – particularly given I’ll be working alongside my dear friend Jack – one of the kindest and most insightful writers on the planet. “I first read the book when I was seven and it made an indelible impression on me – more than any novel since,” Wilson said.
