The Inheritors

Bag om The Inheritors

The Inheritors is a novel written by William Golding, the author of Lord of the Flies. The book tells the story of a group of Neanderthals who encounter a group of Homo sapiens (modern humans) for the first time. The Neanderthals, who are portrayed as more peaceful and in tune with nature, struggle to understand the language and behavior of the Homo sapiens, who are portrayed as more violent and aggressive. The story is told from the perspective of Lok, a Neanderthal who becomes close with one of the Homo sapiens, a woman named Fa. As the two groups interact, tensions rise and violence ensues, ultimately leading to the downfall of the Neanderthals. The novel explores themes of evolution, cultural differences, and the nature of humanity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
