John Knowles Books Overview

A Separate Peace

Playaway is the easiest way to listen to a book on the go. An all in one format, the player and content are combined in one 2 ounce unit and it comes with everything you need to start listening immediately. No separate player needed, no CDs, no downloads just press play! Devon School, an exclusive prep school for boys in New Hampshire, is a world unto itself. But it is the summer of 1942 and the massive thundercloud of World War II threatens the school’s peaceful environment. Paralleling the war, where real and imagined are sometimes collaborated with and sometimes destroyed, is the friendship between Gene and Phineas, two students attending the 1942 Summer Session at Devon. Their idyllic world begins to fall apart as the war escalates, and suspicion and the complexities of adolescence result in violence and betrayal.

Peace Breaks Out

In the uneasy peace after World War II, the senior year at Devan School for Boys in New Hampshire changes from a time of fiendships into a stunning drama of tragic betrayal.
