Overview
“An hour on this rock is a lifetime.”
A Penguin Classic
Drowning in the freezing North Atlantic, Christopher “Pincher” Martin, temporary lieutenant, happens upon a grotesque rock, an island that appears only on weather charts. To drink, there is a pool of rainwater; to eat, there are weeds and sea anemones. Through the long hours with only himself to talk to, Martin must try to assemble the truth of his fate, piece by terrible piece.
After Lord of the Flies, William Golding wrote novels that further explored the complexities of human nature, not only social tendencies but the psychological underpinnings of human consciousness. This edition provides a Suggestions for Further Exploration section that identifies key themes throughout Golding’s novels—including Pincher Martin, first published in 1956—and connections to classic and contemporary fiction, nonfiction, film, and television.
Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
