"The lord of the flies" is a novel by William Goldin published in 1950's. It deals with a group of people that has a plane accident. Only children survive and they arrive at an island but they are alone without adults.
First they start to work together, but as time goes by, they start to fight each other and they become aggresive.
In the novel, there are many symbols; a conch shell, Piggy's glasses and the beast.

The conch shell is used to call a meeting, Piggy's glasses are used to make fire and the beast is a wild boar. Does this story ring a bell to you?
Yes, in season 9 the Chapter called "Das Bus" in the Simpsons is an adaptation of Goldin's "The lord of the flies".
They have a bus accident and they arrive in an island. Bart calls a meeting with the conch shell, Milhouse's glasses are used to make fire and the wild boar eats the children's food, although Nelson thinks that it was Milhouse who ate the food and they try to kill him!
Here you have got a nice summary of the chapter and I strongly recommend you to read the book, in Spanish it is "El señor de las moscas".
