A riveting story about the root of human nature- shown in the long lengths and deep depths of depravity these boys sink to/go through in this story. The symbolism, the details, everything paint a picture of true despair by the hands of human nature. Found even in children and pre-teens. A sad, sad story, a moral point that will have you thinking for a little while.
