The only survivors, a group of schoolboys. By day, they explore the dazzling beaches. By night, they are haunted by nightmares of a primitive beast and of what they've lost. 'There aren't any grown-ups anywhere.' Orphaned by society, they must forge their own; but it isn't long before the group is split, and their innocent games take a dangerous turn. 'What are we? Humans? Or Animals?' For the first time, from acclaimed artist Aimée de Jongh, comes the stunning graphic novel adaptation of this classic story, one of the BBC's '100 Novels that shaped our World'.
