Amazon.com ReviewAccording to Ponyboy, there are two kinds of people in the world: greasers and socs. A soc (short for “social”) has money, can get away with just about anything, and has an attitude longer than a limousine. A greaser, on the other hand, always lives on the outside and needs to watch his back. Ponyboy is a greaser, and he's always been proud of it, even willing to rumble against a gang of socs for the sake of his fellow greasers--until one terrible night when his friend Johnny kills a soc. The murder gets under Ponyboy's skin, causing his bifurcated world to crumble and teaching him that pain feels the same whether a soc or a greaser. This classic, written by S. E. Hinton when she was 16 years old, is as profound today as it was when it was first published in 1967.
Review“…we meet powerful characters in a book with a powerful message.”— The Horn Book

Quotes

    I had just thought that maybe if I played like Johnny wasn't dead it wouldn't hurt so much
  • highlandjeffereyhas quotedlast year
    Don't remember how Johnny was your buddy, don't remember that he didn't want to die.
  • highlandjeffereyhas quotedlast year
    Dally didn't die a hero. He died violent and young and desperate, just like we all knew he'd die someday.
