A summary for Chapters 7-12 in Lord of the Flies by William Golding includes QUOTES (please check the description as I have split the original document and have included something in the description)
A summary of Chapters 7-12 from Lord of the Flies by William Golding. I have split the original document and so a small part has been sliced off from the start of Chapter 7 that being at the start of Chapter 7 before the boys hunt a pig, Simon predicts that Ralph will go back home and says to Ralph...
The boys hunt a pig. Ralph hits the pig: “Ralph was full of fright and apprehension and
pride ‘I hit him!’ “
A more violent reenactment of the hunt takes place: “Robert squealed in mock terror,
then in real pain”
Ralph, Jack and Roger then climb the mountain and see the ‘beast’
Chapter 8
Jack holds an assembly. He lies about Ralph: “ ‘He isn’t a proper Chief.’ “
“ ‘He’s not a hunter.’ “
“ ‘When Roger and me went on - he stayed back’ “
Jack has another vote for Chief. Ralph is still voted in
Jack leaves ‘Ralph’s lot’: “ ‘I’m not going to play any longer. Not with you.’ “
The rest make a fire on the beach: “Much of it was damply rotten”
“Piggy himself removed his one glass”
Simon goes off on his own
Jack makes himself Chief of his own small tribe: “ ‘We’ll kill a pig and have a feast’ “
“ ‘I’m going to get more of the biguns away from the conch’ “
They hunt a mother pig and kill it: “Jack was on top of the sow, stabbing downward with
his knife”
They put the head of the pig on a stick, for the beast
Simon finds the head at his special place: “Even the butterflies deserted the open space
where the obscene thing dripped”
Jack raids Ralph and Piggy’s fire and invites them all to their feast: “spoke in time ‘The
Chief has spoken’ “
The head tells Simon that the beast is the evil within them - he has an epileptic fit:
“ ‘Fancy thinking the Beast was something you could hunt and kill!’ “
Chapter 9
Simon begins to travel to go and tell the boys the truth
Piggy and Ralph join the others at the feast
More boys join Jack’s tribe
A reenactment or ‘dance’ of the pig takes place: “Now out of the terror rose another
desire, thick, urgent, blind”
