BOOK
NOOK
By Rose Cook
A Separate Peace, by John
Knowles, is available at the
Perry-Houston County
Library.
It isn’t often that I read a
book and don’t enjoy it, but
this is one. I don’t have any
real, concrete complaints with
it except that it is a “nothing”
story. Basically, it tells of a
group of sixteen year old
school boys and their last free
summer before being drafted.
It goes into much detail over
very minute matters. It drags
on and on describing the
campus and its landscaping.
One of the characters,
Finny, did steal my heart with
his daring and sensitivity and
his unique friendship with
Gene. He represents what
most of us wanted to be when
we were sixteen, suave,
sophisticated, and very sure of
himself. At times we get
glimpses into his insecurities
but usually he presented
himself in a self-confident
way.
The story lakes place in the
summer of 1942 when all the
world was engrossed in im
pending war.
