Divided into four sections, the work discusses 'People and Places', 'Books', Westward Look', and 'Caught in a Bush'.In 'Books', the essay 'Fable' answered questions about Lord of the Flies, based on lectures Golding gave at UCLA, hoping it would answer many of the questions from the students.

There is some spotting to the fore edge. The hinges are slightly strained but firm. To the dust wrapper, there are some small tears and light creases and general age toning to the extremities. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are bright and clean. Very Good Indeed
