About This Novel

This is the 110th anniversary edition of Nobel Prize winner William Golding's collected works. Golding's controversial semi-autobiographical novel explores the pain of growing up in a sonata-like structure. "The Pyramid" is a highly controversial and important work by Golding, and its interpretation and evaluation have always been divided. It changes Golding's famous allegorical style and is regarded as a semi-autobiographical novel that reflects the pain of growing up. It deeply explores how love is possible in a dark human nature and world. In the author's opinion, a child's retina is a perfect video recorder that can leave an indelible impression as long as it is given interesting or exciting stimuli. Based on this impression, the novel is divided into three parts, which respectively intercept three fragments of the protagonist Oliver's life: the summer when he was eighteen years old, the first vacation at Oxford University, and the revisit to the old place when he was forty-five years old. The structure of the novel is modeled after Beethoven's sonata, which is extremely artistic and profound; and the theme that shines brightly on the spire of the pyramid built by Golding is "love": if the heart has love, it will live, if there is no love, it will die.
