Room Full of Mirrors: A Biography of Jimi Hendrix 1/4

Something that I wonder about in this is how Jimi Hendrix survived his childhood. He was raised under the care of his abusive father, Al. His mother, Lucille and him divorced. She died a couple of years later. They had his brother Leon on and off. 3 of their children were put up for adoption.

What suprised was that the worlds best guitarist was very poor. He couldn't afford things that were $1. He lived in several houses, including boarding. He lived his first 3 years of life with his mom and other women. Al was in World War 2 at the time. He never had a permanent schol or home.

Chapter 10 - The Shell and the Glasses

Ralph and Piggy were talking about the night before, the night I died. Ralph said that it was murder. Piggy says it was just an accident. They both were really freaked out. They saw someone die. Meanwhile, Jack and his tribe were talking about the beast in disguise. They thought that I was the beast and they killed me. Instead of me, they should have killed the real beast, the Lord of the Flies! Jack and some members of his tribe plan to attack Ralph. They all get int oa fight that ends up dirty. Everyone participates. Even Samneric. Ralph says he kicked and punched someone in the dark. Eric says someone punched and kicked him. The thought of this may lead to them beating up themselves.

Chapter 9: A View to a Death

I believe that Jack is the reason for Simons death. I think this because they tried to kill the beast.

They though if they killed the beast, they would be a better tribe. They thought that Simon was

the beast in disguise. They think that the beast was trying to mess with their minds. The main

reason is that Jack thought that the beast was in a disguise because of the feeling of being killed and

they thought that Simon was the disguise and they killed him.

Chapter 8: A Gift for the Darkness

Jack forms a new tribe. His new tribe kills a pig. Afterwards, they take out all of the guts and cuts off the head. They stick the head on a stick and calls the pig head a gift for the beast. Simon sees them do this and starts to see things. Flies fly around the pig head and the heads starts to talk to Simon. The pig then says he is the Lord of the Flies. This part is the most terrifying because he's starting to lose his mind. He sees the pig head as it talks to him and tells stuff. He tells Simon that the beast is apart of them. That part means fear, rage, and more. Simon then starts to stare at him and talk back. The pig then threatens Simon. This part was terrifying because a talking pig head is now threatening him.
