A Separate Peace - John Knowles

Descriere A Separate Peace - John Knowles

A novel of unrest among 16-year-olds in a boy's school at theopening of WorldWar II. \nAn 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 World War II. \nNominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read. \n \nSet 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.\n
