BARRIE J M - GEBRAUCHT PETER PAN PETER AND WEND...

Peter Pan  the boy who would not grow up  originally appeared as a baby living a magical life
among birds and fairies in J.M. Barrie's sequence of stories  Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens.
His later role as flying by hero was brought to the stage by Barrie in the beloved play Peter
Pan  which opened in 1904 and became the novel Peter and Wendy in 1911. In a narrative filled
with vivid characters  epic battles  pirates  fairies  and fantastic imagination  Peter Pan's
adventures capture the spirit of childhood--and of rebellion against the role of adulthood in
conventional society. This edition includes the novel and the stories  as well as an
introduction by eminent scholar Jack Zipes. Looking at the man behind Peter Pan and sifting
through the psychological interpretations that have engaged many a critic  Zipes explores the
larger cultural and literary contexts in which we should appreciate Barrie's enduring creation
and shows why Peter Pan is a work not for children but for adults seeking to reconnect with
their own imagination.
