The Outsiders

The Greasers and the rich-kid Socs are at war on the Tulsa streets. Ponyboy, a fourteen-year-old brawler, chainsmoker and dreamer, is a fiercely loyal Greaser. But a single, murderous catastrophe is to wrench him from his old life a and overturn everthing he thinks he knows. The Outsiders(1967) was a audacious debut written when S.E Hinton was only seventeen, laying bare the hopes and terrors behind teenage bravado in a world of drive-ins, drag races and switchblades. It confronted America with a new breed of anri-hero from the wrong side of the class of youthful rebellion.
