Book Description:
From William Golding - the winner of the Nobel Prize for literature and author of Lord of the Flies - The Spire is a dark portrait of one man's obsession, and the folly that his overreaching ambition creates.
About the Author:
Born in Cornwall, England, William Golding started writing at the age of seven. Though he studied natural sciences at Oxford to please his parents, he also studied English and published his first book, a collection of poems, before finishing college. He served in the Royal Navy during World War II, participating in the Normandy invasion. Golding's other novels include Lord of the Flies, The Inheritors, The Spire, Rites of Passage (Booker Prize), and The Double Tongue.
