	Peyrefitte is best known for his controversial novels and literary biographies. One recurring theme in his novels is [[pederasty]]. Most of his works have a pederastic undertone, and in some he freely explores that side of his own personality. Even more than [[André Gide]] or [[Henry de Montherlant]] (with whom he was friends), he used his literary career as a tool for his defence of [[pederasty]].

	The most known and probably best of these novels is the semi-autobiographical ''Les Amitiés particulières'' (1944, translated as ''Special friendships'') which won him the Renaudot prize in 1945. The novel, based on his experiences, deals with a homoerotic relationship between two boys at a Roman Catholic [[Boarding school\|boarding school]] and how it is destroyed by a priest's feelings for the younger boy. However, most of the intertextuality, symbols, names of secondary characters, and also the adult characters, constantly contrast with the 'young homosexual' main theme, as they all relate to an ancient, modern and contemporary pederastic culture.

	In 1964, the novel was made into a movie by director Jean Delannoy. On the set of the film, Peyrefitte met the 14-year-old Alain-Philippe Malagnac (later Alain-Philippe Malagnac d'Argens de Villele) who had been cast as a choir boy and was a big fan of the book. Not only did Peyrefitte sign Alain-Philippe's copy of the book but the two also fell in love, pursuing a stormy relationship that Peyreffite chronicled in some of his later novels such as ''Notre Amour'' (1967) and ''L'Enfant de cœur'' (1978). Peyrefitte remained friends with Malagnac and he would later sell his precious collection of rare books and erotic art to finance Malagnac's business ventures.

			==Roger Peyrefitte -- Our Love==

			* '''Roger Peyrefitte, "Notre amour" ("Our Love") (Paris, 1967):'''

			This autobiographical novel describes the love affair between the author and a fourteen-year-old boy who is never named, but who Peyrefitte much later in his autobiography revealed was actually twelve years old (the boy later went on to become a prominent French politician).

			Peyrefitte and the boy make eye contact when P. visits the boy's school. P. knows that the boy has read his book, "Special Friendships" (see above), where Alexandre wears a red tie to signify his love for Georges. P. returns to the school and attends a mass in which the boy sings in the choir. He is wearing a red tie. After the service, P. waits behind:


			----

			----


			I surveyed the chapel: everyone had left, except my choirboy. I walked forward with slow steps: he managed to extinguish the candles with a calculated slowness, as if he was waiting for me. He had taken off his vestments. He was alone.

			At the sound of my steps, he turned his head quickly and smiled at me. I walked to the side, so as not to be seen from behind, and signalled to him to come over. He came over, his face redder than his tie, but with a decided air that I admired. "Bonjour!" I said, holding out my hand. He introduced himself. His first name, his last name, were sweet and sonorous like those of lovers. His voice was hot, rich, a bit sing-song.

			Our eyes penetrated each other. "We are in agreement, aren't we?" I said.

			He nodded.

			I gave him the slip of paper with my telephone number. "Do you live in Paris?"

			"No, at X., near Versailles... After I read your book, I wanted to write to you and I looked up your address in the telephone book, but it wasn't there." I listened to this declaration in delight.

			"I love you," I murmured. "You know what that means, love?"

			"Yes," he said.

			"Ever since I became a man, all I've wanted out of life is a boy to love for the rest of my life. You have helped me attain the goal of my life." I was no more astonished than he was at my words. His hand was in mine: he squeezed my fingers. "Did you put on the red tie for me?"

			He smiled. "And it was for you that I served the mass."

			"We're not playing at Special Friendships now."

			"I know that, but it was necessary to have read it first."

			In order to mark this meeting with another symbolic gesture, I offered him a silk handkerchief that I had in my pocket. He kissed it. Then I took him in my arms, right there behind the back of the church door, and returned his handkerchief-kiss on his lips.
