(Louis) Lord of the Flies (E-File)

by American Printing House for the Blind

$25.00

Setup with instructions The file itself downloads straightforwardly, but loading it onto a braille device or configuring it for an embosser requires familiarity with that specific hardware or software. A motivated user or family member could accomplish this with documentation, making guided_setup appropriate — though a TVI adds real value for students in educational settings.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 5, 2026

This is a braille e-file edition of William Golding's 'Lord of the Flies,' formatted for use with braille displays and embossers through APH's Louis database. It's intended for students or readers who are blind or have low vision and need access to this commonly assigned literary text in a format their braille technology can use. You're purchasing a downloadable file, not a physical book — you'll need a compatible braille display, note-taker, or embosser to read it. Federal Quota funds are eligible for this title, which is significant for students in the U.S. school system, as those funds are distributed to schools and programs serving students with visual impairments.
