Peter Pan: Peter and Wendy and Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens
De (autor) J. M. Barrie Introducere de Jack Zipesen Limba Engleză Paperback – December 2005
When Peter Pan and his fairy companion Tinker Bell fly in through the window of Wendy's nursery one night, it is the beginning of an adventure that whisks Wendy and her brothers Michael and John off to Neverland. There they will find mermaids, fairies, pirates led by the sinister Captain Hook, and the crocodile who bit off his leg - and still pursues him in hope of the rest! Peter Pan 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 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, and reproduces the original illustrations by Francis Donkin Bedford and Arthur Rackham. In his introduction, Jack Zipes sifts through the psychological interpretations that have engaged critics, explores the cultural and literary contexts in which we can appreciate Barrie's enduring creation, and shows why Peter Pan is fundamentally a work that urges adults to reconnect with their own imagination.
James Matthew Barrie (1860-1937) was born in Scotland, the son of a weaver. In 1885, he moved to London to pursue a literary career. Peter Pan, with its flying and theatrical devices, was a huge success and continues to be performed today; in 1911 Barrie rewrote the play as a novel. On his death in 1937 Barrie gifted copyright of the play Peter Pan to Great Ormond Street hospital.
If you enjoyed Peter Pan you might like Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, also available in Penguin Classics.
'One of the classic children's stories of all time'
Daily Mail
'Intensely moving as well as enchanting in its evocation of childhood, the heartlessness of youth and parental grief as children grow older'
Daily Telegraph

Notă biografică
James
Matthew
Barrie
lived
from
1860
to
1937.
He
was
born
in
Scotland,
the
son
of
a
weaver.
He
adored
his
mother,
Margaret
Ogilvie
-
it
was
the
Scottish
fashion
in
those
days
for
wives
to
keep
their
maiden
names
-
and,
although
the
family
were
quite
poor
she
made
sure
that
he
was
educated.
James
moved
to
London
in
1885
to
follow
a
literary
career.
He
first
wrote
short
stories
and
later
successful
plays
which
made
him
rich
and
famous.
He
was
very
nervous
when
he
gave
Peter
Pan
to
his
theatrical
manager
because
it
was
a
child's
fantasy,
the
first
and
only
time
he
had
ever
written
especially
for
children.
But
Peter
Pan
with
its
flying
and
theatrical
devices
was
a
huge
success
and
continues
to
be
performed
today.
In
1911
James
Barrie
turned
his
play
into
a
novel,
one
of
the
most
thrilling
and
magical
of
all
the
great
adventures
that
have
been
written
for
children.
Caracteristici
"I
have
all
my
life
believed
that
JM
Barrie's
Peter
Pan
is
the
greatest
British
play
of
the
century"
Spectator
Recenzii
Lovingly
rendered
account
of
a
great
story.
