HintonSubject: Two rival gangs in the 1960s: the Socs, privileged boys, and the greasers, poor outcasts, and the lessons they learn. Setting: Middle America Description: Ponyboy and his two brothers belong to a gang, the greasers, who are working class boys who are often in trouble with the police. Their rival gang is the Socs, well-to-do "social" boys. The greasers imagine that the Socs have perfect lives because they have money and seem to be able to do whatever they want. After a fight goes too far, Ponyboy realizes that the Socs have problems and that both gangs are "outsiders."
