I borrowed A Separate Peace by John Knowles from my brother, mostly because of this summary:
Set at a boys' boarding school in New England during the early years of World War II, "A Separate Peace" is a harrowing and luminous parable of the dark side of adolescence. Gene is a lonely, introverted intellectual. Phineas is a handsome, taunting, daredevil athlete. What happens between the two friends one summer, like the war itself, banishes the innocence of these boys and their world.
I asked my brother how it was, and he said: "There aren't any gay boys in it."
Pfft. There SO are. ;P

Date: 2004-08-30 11:50 am (UTC)I so have to read ASP. John Knowles' name is in my palm right now. I have a shitty library, though, so they might not have it. They never have slashy books. :C
Ooh, but I'm going to the bookstore tomorrow (again; I was there today as well :D), and they might have it. I would pray if I believed in any God. ^_^ *glomps*
