    Someone once said that being yourself, being who you are, is a successful rebellion.

    1,611 words
    In John Knowles A Separate Peace, symbols are used to develop and advance the themes of the novel.

It is as if the boys are in their own little world or bubble secluded from the outside world and everyone else. Along with their friends, Gene and Finny play games and joke about the war instead of taking it serious...

    1) The term a separate peace means that two people have come to an agreement on their own standards. In the novel A Separate Peace, the agreement is made between the characters Gene and Finny. I believe Knowles chose this title, because it is a good way to describe the relationship between the two characters at the end of the story. At the beginning of the story Gene and Finny were good friends. Sometimes Finny did some things that Gene thought were too wild, like wear the school tie as a belt. ...
