This is such an interesting book! I can relate to the references by other readers to Lord of the Flies. It is a sad and surreal story, all those young boys who were already outcasts, now on their own, not much in the way of resources, and with the threat of plague and starvation hanging over them. I know that wartime is very difficult and frightening for everyone, and the fear of plague doesn't help, but what the villagers did to the boys is appalling. I'd like to know what happened to the boys later. I'm glad I read it.
