- Lord of the Flies
I think that the story that I would like to manipulate is
William Golding’s Lord of the Flies.
I often thought how the story would be different if there were girls on the
island. And what else, maybe a few disabled senior citizens that the girls have
been tasked with caring for. Girls and disabled senior citizens would probably
have a dramatic change to the events that happen on that island. How
interesting the pseudo leadership would have materialized then. Would the
seniors die? Would the girls have an influence in the decisions? I don’t want
anybody to think I am poking fun at disabled people, I am not intending to do
so. I just thought it would be a more chaotic scenario. Would be a great deal
more complicated and worrisome. Or would it?
- The Divine Comedy
My original idea was a manipulation of The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri. However I abandoned it for
fear that this would not be so familiar. If you are familiar with this trilogy,
my idea was that rather than viewing all the punishments of Purgatory and Hell,
the narrator must actually experience them. Describing what he is going through
as it happens. I am very sure that the ideas in your mind from reading some of
the experiences can give a very clear picture of what it would feel like to be
under such circumstances. But to actually read the feeling might be a very
interesting and probably less that palatable evolution.
