Don't you think you're asking just a wee bit too much? If you don't want to read the book yourself, why don't you use a search machine and look for a synopsis there?

Never read "Monkey" but give me a moment to skim the summary ...\n\nOkay, see the link below for a summary and some insights into the book.  It seems to me that the story itself is an allegory for the path to spiritual enlightenment.  While Dante is mostly a passive tourist on his trip through Hell, the characters in Monkey must overcome various metaphorical obstacles in order to gain the sutras and achieve buddha-hood.\n\nThus the nature of the story itself parallels the trials a buddhist must go through to achieve nirvana.

Brian yells at the skunk, which reacts by spraying him. Blinded for nearly two hours as a result of the spray, Brian runs into the lake to wash himself. The skunk has also eaten the eggs he had stored on the shore. Brian learned two lessons from this incident: make a sturdy shelter and put food in a protected place. Spending days strengthening his shelter with additional wood, and finding a high tree for a food shelf that bears would be unable to reach, Brian still faces the problem of a lack of food. After brainstorming about this problem, he resolves to construct a small pond in which he may store the fish he has caught, attracted by the remains of the fish he had already eaten. Brian demonstrates his forethought but not only finding food for the moment, but also developing some system of storage for the future.\n\nhttp://www.sparknotes.com/lit/hatchet/section5.rhtml\n\nGood luck.\n\nKevin, Liverpool, England.

I'm glad you asked that, not because I have the answer but because me and my daughter, well . . . me anyways, are reading Moby Dick, and I never remembered it being so detailed on Cetology or in the beginning of the novel before he meets Queequeg.   Maybe I cheated back in my highschool or junior high days and got the Cliff Notes, but I coulda swore I read the book.  Oh well, that's been many decades ago.  I just got past the part where Captain Ahab kicked Stubb (First Mate isn't he??) and Stubb had the dream where someone asks him why is it so bad to be kicked by Ahab since his leg is made of ivory,etc..  My daughter, who lives with her mother about 65 miles southeast of me, probably hasn't read one word of it since she's a lot like her mother, who didn't like to read.  I read "Uncle Tom's Cabin" to her when she was pregnant with either our son or daughter, I can't remember which.  She liked to be read to but wouldn't do it herself, so, I doubt my daughter has read any of "Moby Dick" since she hasn't said anything about it.  Oh well, I'm rambling on.  Sorry.  Maybe I'll continue the book, but the Cetology part is way too detailed and "informational" for me.  I want more "action", and am becoming too addicted to the brainless tv, and too lazy to read fine novels.  I hope you finish the book.  It's a wonderful piece of literature.  God Bless you.

In the midst of a raging war, a plane evacuating a group of schoolboys from Britain is shot down over a deserted tropical island. Two of the boys, Ralph and Piggy, discover a conch shell on the beach, and Piggy realizes it could be used as a horn to summon the other boys. Once assembled, the boys set about electing a leader and devising a way to be rescued. They choose Ralph as their leader, and Ralph appoints another boy, Jack, to be in charge of the boys who will hunt food for the entire group.\n\nRalph, Jack, and another boy, Simon, set off on an expedition to explore the island. When they return, Ralph declares that they must light a signal fire to attract the attention of passing ships. The boys succeed in igniting some dead wood by focusing sunlight through the lenses of Piggy’s eyeglasses. However, the boys pay more attention to playing than to monitoring the fire, and the flames quickly engulf the forest. A large swath of dead wood burns out of control, and one of the youngest boys in the group disappears, presumably having burned to death.\n\nAt first, the boys enjoy their life without grown-ups and spend much of their time splashing in the water and playing games. Ralph, however, complains that they should be maintaining the signal fire and building huts for shelter. The hunters fail in their attempt to catch a wild pig, but their leader, Jack, becomes increasingly preoccupied with the act of hunting.\n\nWhen a ship passes by on the horizon one day, Ralph and Piggy notice, to their horror, that the signal fire—which had been the hunters’ responsibility to maintain—has burned out. Furious, Ralph accosts Jack, but the hunter has just returned with his first kill, and all the hunters seem gripped with a strange frenzy, reenacting the chase in a kind of wild dance. Piggy criticizes Jack, who hits Piggy across the face. Ralph blows the conch shell and reprimands the boys in a speech intended to restore order. At the meeting, it quickly becomes clear that some of the boys have started to become afraid. The littlest boys, known as “littluns,” have been troubled by nightmares from the beginning, and more and more boys now believe that there is some sort of beast or monster lurking on the island. The older boys try to convince the others at the meeting to think rationally, asking where such a monster could possibly hide during the daytime. One of the littluns suggests that it hides in the sea—a proposition that terrifies the entire group.\n\nNot long after the meeting, some military planes engage in a battle high above the island. The boys, asleep below, do not notice the flashing lights and explosions in the clouds. A parachutist drifts to earth on the signal fire mountain, dead. Sam and Eric, the twins responsible for watching the fire at night, are asleep and do not see the parachutist land. When the twins wake up, they see the enormous silhouette of his parachute and hear the strange flapping noises it makes. Thinking the island beast is at hand, they rush back to the camp in terror and report that the beast has attacked them.\n\nThe boys organize a hunting expedition to search for the monster. Jack and Ralph, who are increasingly at odds, travel up the mountain. They see the silhouette of the parachute from a distance and think that it looks like a huge, deformed ape. The group holds a meeting at which Jack and Ralph tell the others of the sighting. Jack says that Ralph is a coward and that he should be removed from office, but the other boys refuse to vote Ralph out of power. Jack angrily runs away down the beach, calling all the hunters to join him. Ralph rallies the remaining boys to build a new signal fire, this time on the beach rather than on the mountain. They obey, but before they have finished the task, most of them have slipped away to join Jack.\n\nJack declares himself the leader of the new tribe of hunters and organizes a hunt and a violent, ritual slaughter of a sow to solemnize the occasion.

The book was really informative on a variety of topics although the ending of every chapter had a hook to keep you reading. Even though you felt manipulated into reading on, it was willingly so, since the book was so exciting to read. It was about a mystery, solving a murder, and heavily referenced Catholic Church history, Christianity's history, and religious sects that have sprang up relating to both. In addition, the book also appeals because it contains riddles and puzzles...clues left by the dead man to help his daughter find an important religious artifact.\n\nI highly recommend it.

I think it sounds pretty good:). I would just brush up your grammar on some of it, rearrange some of your sentence structure, otherwise it is really well done! I read Lord Of The Flies my freshman year of high school, and it was one of the only ones I could read without hating it. The only question I have is-are you sure Golding is giving the early forms of living a bad rep? or is he maybe looking into what he sees may be the future of civilization if we cannot live by our morals and our rules???? Think about it in that sense and you may get a different view on it:). Good luck!:)
