"Flies" is a science fiction short story by Isaac Asimov. It was first published in the June 1953 issue of ''Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction'', and later appeared in Asimov's collections ''Nightfall and Other Stories'' (1969).
The author's original title for the story was "King Lear, IV, i, 36–37", but Anthony Boucher, editor at the time, suggested a different title, which became "Flies".〔
==Plot summary==
A group of former college students meet at a reunion twenty years after graduation and discuss their achievements. One of the ex students, now an animal behaviorist, is tormented by his ability to read the thoughts of his former friends in their small behavioral tics and gestures. He reflects on his life and research, as well the pain it has brought him, as one of his friends, and insecticide researcher, fights off the flies that continually crowd around him. Unbeknownst to all but the behaviorist, the flies' behavior is caused by their belief that he is a deity.
