Is "Lord of the Flies" world literature? Please give me some reasons.

For some reason, we generally classify much of our literature in America similarly to literature involving England.

For example, we study British Literature in high school and college and American Literature in high school and college, but don't really push the others. We often lump them into World Literature, meaning a focus on translated work from other languages or pieces from authors with foreign backgrounds.

William Golding is indeed British. I think our shared language (English) is what has given us the idea to maintain a certain set of study devoted to British Literature. It is also where we derived our language and literary purpose.

I would say no, it is not world literature.
