The Outsiders by American writer S. E. Hinton is a cornerstone of young adult literature, revolutionising the depiction of class difference and the way class struggle is represented within young people. The novel showcases a depiction of not only class injustice, but also social injustice as the two class groups are held to different societal standards based solely on their outward appearance. This paper will further explore the manifestation of said class struggle through not only continuous systemic oppression, but also the way poverty and violence are connected throughout the novel and the differences in perception of these two class and social groups as well as the way that gender, masculinity, and femininity are portrayed throughout the novel. |
