Faber & Faber Famous Find: William Golding's Lord of The Flies. In 1954, after being rejected by nearly 20 publishers, the materials for the great novel were discovered by Charles Monteith of Faber. At the time it was called Strangers from Within, and after significant cuts and revisions, as well as a title change, the world received the great Lord of the Flies.
