"Stay gold, Ponyboy."
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 young adult fiction that laid the groundwork for the genre. S. E. Hinton's classic novel 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.
At the age of 17, Hinton published The Outsiders (1967), which established him as one of the most prominent and influential young adult novelists of all time. The Outsiders is still on best seller charts more than thirty years after its release. That Was Then, This Is Now (1971), Rumble Fish (1975), and Tex (1979), all of which were adapted into major feature pictures, are among Hinton's other notable works. S.E. Hinton's S.E. Hinton's S.E.
