Ponyboy is fourteen, tough and confused, yet sensitive beneath his bold front. Since his parents' death, his loyalties have been to his brothers and his gang, the rought, swinging long-haired boys from the wrong side of the tracks. When his best friend kills a member of a rival gane, a nightmare of violence begins and swiftly envelops Ponyboy in a turbulent chain of events.
Read S. E. Hinton's novel to meet the Curtis brothers, the rest of the Greasers, and their rivals, the Socs, and then tune in to watch their story unfold on Fox's new series The Outsiders, brought to you by Francis Ford Coppola.

Work Description
According 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 world to crumble and teaching him that pain feels the same whether a soc or a greaser.
