How does Simon get along with the littluns?

Simon has very little interaction with the littluns other than picking fruit which they cannot reach as he passes though a group of them on his way to his 'secret place' in the jungle. Essentially Simon is a loner but what contact he has with other boys tends to be with the bigguns, in particular Ralph.


What kind of boy is Simon in Lord of the Flies?

Simon is a quite boy who keeps to himself a lot. Simon is happy to pick ripe fruit for the littluns who are unable to reach it. He admires Ralph and is happy to help him build shelters and is also happy to run an errand for Ralph, through the darkening jungle when the rest of the boys are scared of the prospect. Simon thinks a lot and seems to have realised, along with Ralph, that the beast is simply part of themselves and not some sort of creature, as most of the other boys believe. Simon faints on occasion and also seems to suffer from epilepsy, which would account for his imagined conversation with the Lord of the Flies, his nose bleed and subsequent collapse. The need to avoid being seen while experiencing an epileptic fit would also account for Simon's desire to spend time alone in his 'secret place.' *Simon is actually suppose to depict the biblical Jesus Christ.


Is Simon really batty?

No, Simon is infact the Christ like figure in Lord of the Flies. He has the ability to "see the future" and is more quiet and solemn compared to the other boys. The boys think Simon is crazy becuase he is not like the rest of them.

Simon recognizes the true nature of the beast on the island, but he struggles to communicate his insights to the other boys due to their growing savagery and fear.
