The Outsiders, American young adult (YA) novel by S.E. Hinton about rival teen gangs in Oklahoma that was published in 1967 and was one of the first modern YA novels. The novel centers on Ponyboy Curtis, a 14-year-old boy who narrates about two weeks of his life in a city (presumed to be Tulsa) that is deeply divided between the working-class “grea...
Susan Eloise Hinton wrote the bulk of The Outsiders, her first novel, when she was a junior in high school, shortly after receiving a failing grade in her creative writing class. By the time she was 17, she had sold the book for publication. Her editor suggested publishing under her first and middle initials “S.E.” instead of under “Susan” to better appeal to male readers. Hinton was 18 years old when The Outsiders was published in 1967. The novel’s storyline was inspired by Hinton’s personal experience with the fragmented social groups of her hometown of Tulsa. A real-life incident in which a greaser friend of hers was physically attacked by a group of more socially accepted students became the opening scene of the novel. In an interview with The New Yorker in 2014, Hinton said that of the books published in the 1960s, “There was only a handful…having teen-age protagonists: Mary Jane wants to go to the prom with the football hero and ends up with the boy next door and has a good time anyway. That didn’t ring true to my life. I was surrounded by teens and I couldn’t see anything going on in those books that had anything to do with real life.”
The Outsiders sold more than 15 million copies in the first 50 years of its publication and was translated into 30 languages. It has a strong presence in fan-fiction writing, with thousands of adaptations posted to fan websites. It frequently appears on lists of banned books for its depictions of gang violence, alcohol and drug use, smoking, family dysfunction, and its characters’ use of profanity; between 1990 and 1999 it was among the top 100 most frequently challenged books in U.S. schools and libraries. Some teachers and librarians have credited the book’s strong characterization and its story of social marginalization as reasons for its enduring appeal. The male greaser characters are portrayed as showing vulnerability in an era when displays of emotion went against the cultural norm for boys and men.
The Outsiders opens as Ponyboy Curtis leaves a daytime showing of a Paul Newman film and reflects on life in his hometown. His community is divided between two conflicting factions: the Socs, short for “Socials,” and the greasers, so-called for the hair grease used to groom and style their hair. The Socs are described by Ponyboy as “the jet set, the West-side rich kids…who jump greasers and wreck houses and throw beer blasts for kicks, and get editorials in the paper for being a public disgrace one day and an asset to society the next,” while the greasers of the city’s East Side are “poorer than the Socs and the middle class” and are considered “almost like hoods.” Ponyboy ends the comparison by adding, “I’m not saying that either Socs or greasers are better; that’s just the way things are.”
The Socs’ propensity for “jumping” greasers makes Ponyboy afraid to walk home alone, and he reflects on the other greasers he would like to have by his side for protection: Dallas (“Dally”) Winston (who has just been released from a juvenile reformatory), Keith (“Two-Bit”) Matthews, Steve Randle, Johnny Cade, and Ponyboy’s elder brothers, Darrel (“Darry”) and Sodapop, who have taken care of him ever since their parents were killed in a car crash. Sure enough, a group of Socs jump out of a car and attack Ponyboy, holding a knife to his throat until his own gang arrives to rescue him.
Later that night Ponyboy attends a drive-in movie with Dally and Johnny, where they meet two Soc girls, Cherry Valance (nicknamed for her red hair) and Marcia, who attend the same high school as Ponyboy. Typically soft-spoken Johnny defends Marcia and Cherry from Dally’s harassment, and Johnny and Ponyboy befriend the girls. Two-Bit arrives and offers to drive the girls home. As they walk to Two-Bit’s house, Cherry and Ponyboy talk about the differences between their two social groups. Ponyboy thinks the only difference is that the greasers like Elvis Presley while the Socs like the Beatles and that money is what really separates the two groups. Cherry tells him, “It’s not just money…You greasers have a different set of values. You’re more emotional. We’re sophisticated—cool to the point of not feeling anything. Nothing is real with us.” When Marcia and Cherry’s boyfriends, Randy and Bob, suddenly arrive in their Mustang, the girls go with them even though the Soc boys have been drinking, because Cherry wants to avoid a fight between the greasers and the Socs. Cherry also tells Ponyboy, “if I see you in the hall at school or someplace and don’t say hi, well, it’s not personal or anything.”

Afterward, however, as Ponyboy and Johnny walk home through a local park, they are accosted by a group of Socs, including Randy and Bob, who are in search of the greasers who “picked up their girls.” The Socs hold Ponyboy’s head underwater in the park’s fountain, but they release him just before he loses consciousness. Recovering from his near-drowning, Ponyboy sees Johnny sitting quietly and holding a bloody switchblade, which he began carrying earlier in the summer after a violent encounter with some Socs. A stunned Johnny tells Ponyboy that he has just stabbed and killed Bob.
In 1983 The Outsiders was adapted into a film of the same name. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, it featured a cast of young actors who soon became household names. C. Thomas Howell (Ponyboy), Matt Dillon (Dallas), Ralph Macchio (Johnny), Patrick Swayze (Darry), Rob Lowe (Sodapop), Emilio Estevez (Two-Bit), and Tom Cruise (Steve) counted among the greasers; Diane Lane appeared as Cherry Valance and Leif Garrett as her boyfriend Bob. The film was dedicated to school librarian Jo Ellen Misakian and her students at a school in Fresno, California; in 1980 Misakian and her students had written to Coppola to suggest he make a film version of their favorite book. The film premiered to mixed reviews—The New York Times called it “spectacularly out of touch” and “laughably earnest”—but it successfully launched the careers of several of its young stars. It came to be considered a classic film of the “Brat Pack” generation of actors.
In 2023 a musical adaptation of The Outsiders debuted in La Jolla, California, with a Broadway production planned for 2024, coproduced by actress Angelina Jolie.
