“The Outsiders transformed young-adult fiction.”—The New York Times

“This remarkable novel gives a moving, credible view of the outsiders from the inside. . . . A book with a powerful message.”—The Horn Book

“Stay gold, Ponyboy.”

No one ever said life was easy. But Ponyboy is pretty sure that he's got things figured out. He knows that he can count on his brothers, Darry and Sodapop. And he knows that he can count on his friends—true friends who would do anything for him, like Johnny and Two-Bit. But not on much else besides trouble with the Socs, a vicious gang of rich kids whose idea of a good time is beating up on “greasers” like Ponyboy. At least he knows what to expect—until the night someone takes things too far.

The Outsiders is a dramatic and enduring work of young adult fiction that laid the groundwork for the genre. S. E. Hinton’s classic novel of a boy who finds himself on the outskirts of regular society remains as powerful today as it was the day it was first published.©1967 S.E. Hinton; (P)1988 Random House, Inc.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Taut with tension, filled with drama. (Chicago Tribune)

Great "classic" story

What a great story. Stories should be told and passed down through generations. This is one of those that every human in any country in any language can relate to. Hinton tells this story very well. It's about growing up and dealing with some of the problems we all had.
This book should be on the "must read" list for every young person in our country.

A Classic!

A great movie and a great audio book as well. Loved the story and I especially loved the narrator as well. Two thumbs up and highly recommended to all who is or once was a teenager!

Good book for teens

My daughter suggested this book after she read it for a class. I can definitely see why she liked it so much. it's a good story of teenage struggles and learning about themselves.

Excellent Performance

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This particular reader is excellent. The dialect and southern draw by Jim Fyfe is warming and wonderful.

What did you like best about this story?

Classic story of the real struggles of adolescence especially where parents are out of the picture (dead or just don't care about their kids). This story is a timeless piece of writing that holds true even in 2018. The characters are charming, deadly and honest.

Which character – as performed by Jim Fyfe – was your favorite?

He reads Ponyboy so well. He captures the essence of a southern hood / greaser so well. Hands down the best audio performer for this text. Fyfe's rhythm and timing are impeccable.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes!

Any additional comments?

Fantastic for 13 and up readers or adults who want to reminisce adolescence.

I love this book!!

It was very suspenseful in a good way and I longed to find out what happened.
