An American classic and great bestseller for over thirty years, "A
Separate Peace" is timeless in its description of adolescence
during a period when the entire country was losing its innocence to
the second world war.
Set at a boys' boarding school in New England during the early
years of World War II, "A Separate Peace" is a harrowing and
luminous parable of the dark side of adolescence. Gene is a lonely,
introverted intellectual. Phineas is a handsome, taunting,
daredevil athlete. What happens between the two friends one summer,
like the war itself, banishes the innocence of these boys and their
world.
A bestseller for more than thirty years, "A Separate Peace" is John
Knowles's crowning achievement and an undisputed American classic.
