Description:

Les amitiés particulières (Special Friendships) is a 1943 novel by French writer Roger Peyrefitte, probably his best known work today, which won the coveted prix Renaudot. Largely autobiographical, it deals with an intimate relationship between two boys at a Roman Catholic boarding school and how it is destroyed by a priest's will to protect them from homosexuality. The book has been translated into English by Felix Giovanelli (1950) and Edward Hyams (1958) both under the title Special Friendships and the latter was reissued in the United States as Secret Friendships. As of 2011, they are out of print. In 1964 a film adaptation, Les amitiés particulières, was made, directed by Jean Delannoy.
