Tietoja tekijästä

James Matthew Barrie, the creator of Peter Pan, was born on May 9, 1860, in Kirriemuir, Angus, Scotland. His idyllic boyhood was shattered by his brother's death when Barrie was six. His own grief and that of his mother influenced the rest of his life. Through his work, he sought to recapture the näytä lisää carefree joy of his first six years. Barrie came to London as a freelance writer in 1885. His early fiction, Auld Licht Idylls (1888) and A Window in Thrums (1889), were inspired by his youth in Kirriemuir. After publishing a biography of his mother Margaret Ogilvy and the autobiographical novel Sentimental Tommy, about a boy living in a dream world (1896), he concentrated on writing plays. The Admirable Crichton (1902), the story of a butler who becomes king of a desert island, helped to establish Barrie's reputation as a playwright. Meanwhile, he began to relive his childhood by telling the first Peter Pan stories to the sons of his friend, Sylvia Llewellyn Davies. The play Peter Pan was first performed in 1904 and published as a novel seven years later. Its imaginative drama, featuring the eternal boy's triumph over the grownup Captain Hook, idealizes childhood and underscores adults' inability to regain it. These resonant themes made it a classic of world literature. Barrie's later work shows his increasingly cynical view of adulthood, particularly in Dear Brutus (1917). Often considered his finest play, it concerns nine men and women whose caprices destroy a miraculous opportunity to relive their lives. Barrie married the former Mary Ansell in 1894. They divorced in 1909, never having any children. Barrie died in London on June 19, 1937. (Bowker Author Biography) näytä vähemmän

Lyhyt elämäkerta
Sir James Matthew Barrie, 9 May 1860 – 19 June 1937) was a Scottish novelist and playwright, best remembered as the creator of Peter Pan. He was born and educated in Scotland and then moved to London, where he wrote a number of successful novels and plays. There he met the Llewelyn Davies boys, who inspired him to write about a baby boy who has magical adventures in Kensington Gardens (first included in Barrie's 1902 adult novel The Little White Bird), then to write Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, a 1904 "fairy play" about an ageless boy and an ordinary girl named Wendy who have adventures in the fantasy setting of Neverland.

Although he continued to write successfully, Peter Pan overshadowed his other work, and is credited with popularising the name Wendy. Barrie unofficially adopted the Davies boys following the deaths of their parents. Barrie was made a baronet by George V on 14 June 1913, and a member of the Order of Merit in the 1922 New Year Honours. Before his death, he gave the rights to the Peter Pan works to Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in London, which continues to benefit from them.

We all know the story of the boy who never grew up - or at least we think we know the story, as it has been adapted so very many times for the big screen. But the original is an astonishingly good read - the final chapter is the most bittersweet I can think of in children's literature. Beautiful.

Incredibly charming and exceedingly pleasant - I’m a philistine as I vaped the whole time whilst I read it, what a loser. Well…. that’s not strictly true. I managed to get through the first 100 pages or so on a break from that tediously adolescent and unattractive habit, but Barrie soon won me back on the subject of nicotine (and seeing as I don’t drink anymore I figure I can allow myself at least one vice, that and the excessive masturbation of course), so I decided to give my lungs the good kicking that they deserve. My body is a temple, but the temple is the Hindu’s Karni Mata and there’s rat shit all over it. I’d recommend the book to all, the moments of 19th century (mostly harmless) misogyny be damned, just settle in with the Arcadia gang and their lovely collection of briars and meerschaums, you might even get a chance to hear about another woman Marriot has fallen in love with, or perhaps snuggle up and hear Barrie admit to the murder of three bothersome drunkards outside his window, and if you’re so inclined you could even join in one of the most terrible sounding boat trips committed to paper. Only having finished this did I find out that this bastard created Peter Pan, and for those who are curious that all-important Arcadia Mixture turns out to be a different moniker for the now discontinued Craven mixture (https://pipesmagazine.com/forums/threads/arcadia-mixture.6347/) so…. stick that in your pipe and smoke it!!… (lisätietoja)

I love this edition of the story. The illustrations added so much to it and kept me so intrigued with what was happening. Minalima did a GREAT job and I can't wait to see what book they come out with next. That said, this is a children's classic and if you're looking for the Disney version of the story this is not it, though they didn't stray too, too far from the original. I would recommend this story to anyone. 4.5 out of 5 stars.
