Separate Peace - Softcover

"Warren Miller" Mr. Knowles has something to say about youth and war that few contemporary novelists have attempted to say and none has said better.

"The Observer" A model of restraint, deeply felt and beautifully written.

"National Review" A masterpiece.

Aubrey Menen I think it is the best-written, best-designed, and most moving novel I have read in many years. Beginning with a tiny incident among ordinary boys, it ends by being as deep and as big as evil itself.

A great book full of local color and character development
This book pits best freinds against each other in a classic settind of the all-boys private school. A class leader is permantly disabled by his best friend who hides his deep resentment for Finny. In a time of war, tempers explode and friendships are shattered. A must read for anyone!
