First published by Viking in 1967, The Outsiders immediately resonated
with young adults. This groundbreaking novel was like nothing else out
there--it was honest and gritty, and was a deeply sympathetic portrayal
of Ponyboy, a young man who finds himself on the outside of regular
society. Forty years later, with over thirteen million copies sold, the
story is as fresh and powerful to teenagers today as it ever was.
