Nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read. An American classic and great bestseller for over thirty years, A Separate Peace is timeless in its description of adolescence during a period when the entire country was losing its innocence to World War II.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.

5.0 out of 5 stars A quick and compelling read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 November 2022

I had not heard of this book, despite it being an ‘American Classic’, until it was referred to in another book I was reading. I have just finished reading it and enjoyed it.

The school and landscape are described vividly, as are the characters , immediately drawing you in.

I was not prepared for the ‘event’ that was the focus of the book. This event, and the consequences of it, linger on in every page thereafter, reminding us that split second decisions can shape the rest of yours, and others, lives.

Although this seems to be reviewed as a teenage read I think it is just as much an adult book. One of the main characters is telling the story as an adult, with the insight and hindsight that mature reflection brings.

I would definitely recommend this book. It is quick to read, is thought provoking and beautifully written.

Se que es un clásico de la literatura norteamericana, y un life changer of a book, pero al menos no lo fue para mi.
En general me agradó la novela como la posible metáfora que el autor quiere dar a entender, pero no es mi fav.

Libro in inglese di un autore classico che non si discute se si vuole un ripasso veloce della lingua inglese. Molto utile e molto consigliato.
