Sodapop Curtis

Intro Sodapop, sometimes called “Soda,” is the middle of the three Curtis brothers. He is energetic, disinterested in school, and movie-star handsome. Ponyboy describes his idolization of Sodapop from the very beginning, and says his brother “gets drunk on just plain living,” a quality he deeply admires. He is the middle child of his family, younger than his brother Darrel Curtis and older than his brother Ponyboy Curtis. Ponyboy is the protagonist and narrator, so Sodapop is presented from his perspective. Sodapop is an attractive, compassionate, and enduringly happy character.
