Outsiders

Title: Outsiders
Author: Susan Eloise Hinton

This book was composed by S.E. Hiten when she was very young. She began writing this book when she was 15. She published this book when she was 16. When I first read this book, I thought this was written by male. I was surprised when I heard that the author was a young girl. The setting of this book is America in 1960s .This book is about a group of young men living in very bad condition with out their parents but friends. Ponyboy, who is the protagonist and the youngest gang in his gangster group. There are two brothers of Ponyboy.
Darrel Curtis - Ponyboy’s oldest brother. Darrel, known as “Darry”
Sodapop Curtis - Ponyboy’s handsome and charming brother. He is also very good at fighting but he has good mind.
There are also friends of Ponyboy Curtis in the greasers.
Two-Bit Mathews - This guy makes great jokes. He looks kind and funny but he is someone actually proud of his switching blade.
Steve Randle - Randle is Sodapop's best friend. They work together in a gas station. Eventhough Sodapop and Randle is best friend, Ponyboy and Randle do not like each other.

Dallas Winston - is the thoughest guy in Ponyboy's group of greasers. Dallas is called as "Dally" and he use to be a member of the gangster in the darkside of New York.

Johnny Cade - Second youngest member of greasers. This guy is Ponyboy's best friend. He kills a member of Socs to saver Ponyboy. Johnny dies in the hospital after Ponyboy, Johnny and Dallas go to resque the children from the church of fire.

There is another group called Socs who are from the nice family but has mind against the social. They are use to be the enemy of greasers and the 2 groups fight. Greasers fought to get rid of those socs from their territory and the socs fought to get the territory. Greasers win this battle and saves the territory.

Amazing things are this though story was wrote by a young girl and this book does not contain bad words such as "F" word.
