Nominated as one of Americas best-loved novels by PBSs The Great American Read.
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 World War II.
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.
