A Separate Peace is John Knowles' first published novel, released in 1959. The bildungsroman (coming of age novel) is Knowles' most widely-known work. The title is derived from a quotation in Hemingway's novel, A Farewell to Arms, in which Lt. Henry states, "I had made a separate peace," with his adversaries in World War I. The title also appears in the preface to Chapter VI of Hemingway's In Our Time, in which Nick Adams states: "Senta. You and me we've made a separate peace." From Wikipedia under the

Q. So far, my best guess is that he sees friendship as a way to please his friends. For example, When he allows Finny to train him for the Winter Olympics even though it will not occur due to the war. Thanks In Advance :) Asked by Amber P - Fri Aug 29 23:44:36 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. gene took sports out of finny's life forever. and i think he let finny train him as a way to make up for it. not just 'pleasing' him. friendship means competition for gene. the competetion that only really existed for gene in his friendship with finny intensifies to a onesided rivalry. take it from there.
