God is dead
Ron Currie's novel God Is Dead imagines what would happen if God literally died and was verifiably dead. In the novel, God comes to earth disguised as a Dinka woman and is killed in Darfur. Some people worship the wild dogs that eat God's body, revealing humanity's capacity for foolishness. The novel uses satire to magnify humanity's absurdities and cruelties, showing the world we are creating without compassion. It addresses ongoing crises like the genocide in Darfur to protest against harmful groupthink and ideologies.

5 lotf structure
The document provides an analysis of the structure used in William Golding's novel "Lord of the Flies". It discusses how Golding uses repetition of events that get increasingly darker and sinister throughout the novel to influence the reader. Key events from the beginning of the novel are repeated later on in a more disturbing way, such as the boys' initial exploration of the island and their attempts to kill the pig. This structure creates tension, a sense of foreboding, and shows the progression of the boys' civilization into violence.
