∙ 6y ago
The parachutist is described as "figure dropping swiftly beneath a parachute, a figure hung with dangling limbs.” The author describes the parachutist as "held by a complication of lines." Later, the parachutist is described as "corpulent" and "ungainly." The parachute man is seen by the boys as a living thing and as a representation of the "beast," and to the reader, it symbolizes the adult world that still exists off of the island.
