Resumo
The article discusses some of the different approaches in interpreting Lord ofthe Flies and puts forward a new view based on the stylistic and structural effects of the use of mystery. This factor is analysed from the various perspectives of vegetation, darkness, silence and noise, and fear of the unknown. An assessment of the use of mystery is given in relation to the symbolic message of the novel, the technique of the detective story, and the role of the narrator.
