Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set against the backdrop of a South Pacific island, the story follows three boys who survive a shipwreck and navigate their new environment. As one of the earliest works of young adult literature, it explores themes of hierarchy, leadership, and the civilizing influence of Christianity amidst 19th-century imperialism. The narrative served as a precursor to later works like Lord of the Flies, contrasting the portrayal of good and evil. Its lasting impact has made it a staple in educational reading lists for over a century.
