Characters. Gene Forrester â The novel's narrator and protagonist. At the novel's opening he is a man in his thirties looking back at his days as a student at private prep academy called the Devon School. As a student, he was extremely intelligent, vying for valedictorian. Separate Peace reads like a long diary entry in which Gene tries to sort out what happened between him and Finny that summer at Devon and what has happened to him emotionally ever since. It's never clear how successful Gene is in this effort, and he should be considered an unreliable narrator.
