      About This Book

      GENE was a lonely, introverted intellectual.
      PHINEAS was a handsome, taunting, daredevil athlete.

      What happened between them at school one summer during the early years of World War II is the subject of A SEPARATE PEACE.

      A great bestseller for over twenty years—one of the most starkly moving parables ever written of the dark forces that brood over the tortured world of adolescence.
