Can someone please summarize the plot, themes, and motifs of Lord of the Flies and Five People you Meet in Heaven?
Thanks in advance.

I think that's the point my 9th grade teacher made, but it's been two years, so meh

My take was that the officer saw how the boys had become savages and were hunting Ralph and said something to the effect that he expected better from British boys. Then he asked something like "Any deaths?" or "casualties?" as a joke, never expecting that there could actually be any. That was when the boys started looking like boys again and began to realize what they had done. But it's been 30 years for me.

As I remember it, he was actually disappointed that they hadn't done better. (and didn't more than 2 people actually die in the end?) Piggy was my favorite death

Simon and Piggy at least. I'm not sure if there were any more.
