Symbolism%of%Lord%of%the%Flies%
According$to$Beverly$Engel,$“…Once$remembered,$the$memory$can$help$you$to$
face$more$of$the$truth.$You$can$then$express$your$pentSup$feelings$about$the$
memory$and$continue$on$your$path$to$recovery…”$means$flashback$is$not$a$sudden$
memory$that$only$shows$up$in$one’s$mind$when$he$is$reliving$to$his$past$as$most$
people$may$think.$Also,$they$are$the$truth$that$reminds$one$what$had$happened,$and$
are$his$issue$to$deal$with$them,$too.$In$Lord%of%the%Flies,$the$author$illustrates$one’s$
flashback$as$one’s$hopelessness,$which$is$due$to$a$dissatisfying$situation,$that$he$can$
turn$this$feeling$of$disappointment$to$energize$himself$to$continue$on$his$path;$
furthermore,$it$reminds$one’s$real$self$who$he$truly$is.$
