Peer Pressure and Teen Violence in S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders
eBook version- Published by Greenhaven Press
This volume of Social Issues in Literature explores S.E. Hinton's classic novel The Outsiders through the lens of teen issues. The text discusses a variety of topics, including Hinton's life and influences, whether the novel offers an overly romanticized view of teen life, and whether social bonds are important for economically disadvantaged teens. The book also explores contemporary perspectives on teen issues, such as a look at modern teen class divisions and the relationship between parenting, masculinity, and teen violence.
Review:
"this series focuses on how social issues have been presented in classic literature. These books provide a unique perspective to the United States' social issues both past and present."
