Dialogue

Dialogue is the words spoken between characters in a fictional work or participants a non fiction film. Lord of the Flies contains a lot of dialogue. On page 85 William Golding shows a conflict between Simon and Jack. 

"You! What were you mucking in the dark for?"

Simon grabbed the conch convulsively. 

"I wanted to go-to go to a place-a place I know"

"What place?"

"Just a place I know. A place in the jungle."

This conversation between Jack and Simon plays a big part in the novel. It becomes part of the reason why each main character breaks off into different tribes. There are many other conversations that also play a big role in what happens in the novel such as Jack talking to other people on the island on page 140. 

"Listen, all of you. Me and my hunters, were living along the beach by a flat rock. We hunt and feast and have fun. If you want to join my tribe come and see us. Perhaps I'll let you join. Perhaps not."

This conversation between Jack and the rest of the people on this island says a lot about Jacks new personality. Now that he is in charge he seems to have a completely new attitude.
