Does anyone know of any novels with a plotline similar to "A Seperate Peace"? It's an extremely generic plot, but I've drawn a blank. Thanks!

The theme I'm focusing on is guilt earned in adolescence.

It's not a novel, but it has always reminded me of the movie Stealing Home with Mark Harmon and Jodi Foster. I dont think that movie was a book though. Im kind of drawing a blank too. Pax - C.

All Quiet on the Western Front has always evoked A Separate Peace.
If you mean school boys learning life lessons, try Dead Poets Society.

I can't name a book off the top of my head but silly as this is, if it can help you, what about the movie "A Toy Story"?
