Updated review in 2020:
I don't remember what rating I gave this book when I read it in 2006. I just remember a few fragments from the story. One is the pig's head, the other is the fact that children are left alone on an island and turn savage.
It's not a lot, but it's actually the full extent of this rather short novel.
The intricacies of the story, and the meaning behind what is told was lost me on me back then I think. I doubt I rated it five stars fourteen years ago, but here we are.
I really enjoyed this book this time around. It's a classic and rightly so.
5 stars
