The Outsiders
Description
Over 50 years of an iconic classic! This international bestseller and
inspiration for a beloved movie is a heroic story of friendship and belonging.
No one ever said life was easy. But Ponyboy is pretty sure that he’s got
things figured out. He knows that he can count on his brothers, Darry and
Sodapop. And he knows that he can count on his friends—true friends who would
do anything for him, like Johnny and Two-Bit. But not on much else besides
trouble with the Socs, a vicious gang of rich kids whose idea of a good time
is beating up on “greasers” like Ponyboy. At least he knows what to
expect—until the night someone takes things too far. The Outsiders is a
dramatic and enduring work of fiction that laid the groundwork for the YA
genre. S. E. Hinton’s classic story of a boy who finds himself on the
outskirts of regular society remains as powerful today as it was the day it
was first published. “The Outsiders transformed young-adult fiction from a
genre mostly about prom queens, football players and high school crushes to
one that portrayed a darker, truer world.” —The New York Times “Taut with
tension, filled with drama.” —The Chicago Tribune “[A] classic coming-of-age
book.” —Philadelphia Daily News A New York Herald Tribune Best Teenage Book A
