Lord of the Flies
How was Ralph’s attitude changed? (Consider the entire chapter). Why is he considering giving up the leadership at the end?
chapter 5
chapter 5
Basically Ralph is sabotaged by evil Jack at every corner. Ralph can't hold a simple meeting without boys breaking into hysterics and falling off logs. Ralph attempts to re-state the rules. Things are solemn until he gets to the bathroom part and the boys laugh hysterically; Ralph has lost control again. Even Simon tries to help with the whole beast thing but the boys shout him down. There is no doubt that Ralph considers quitting.
