About J. M. Barrie

J. M. Barrie was born in 1860 in a Scottish village, the son of a weaver. At the age of twenty-five, he moved to London, where he began his career as a playwright and novelist, a career that would bring him fame and many honors. He told his first Peter Pan stories to the sons of his friend Sylvia Llewellyn Davies, later incorporating them into The Little White Bird. In 1904, Peter Pan made its stage debut and was an immediate sensation, its revival every Christmas in London through 1940 a testament to its popularity. Barrie was made a baronet in 1913, received the Order of Merit in 1922, and was named president of the Society of Authors in 1928. He died in 1937.

Goodreads review by Pauly on November 15, 2021

Ever so beautiful and tragic Peter Pan was a favorite when I was a child. It was a lovely thing to dream of a place called Neverland, where one may fly with fairies and splash with mermaids.

ENGLISH (Peter Pan) / ITALIANO «All children, except one, grow up.» The incipit of Peter Pan of J.M. Barrie is the perfect synthesis of the book. I will try to make the point using as inspiration the words of a child, namely three phrases from my daughter Arianna while in the evening she was listening......more

Magical This week, I went to a local park, sat at a picnic table, and started to read Peter and Wendy to two children. Within seconds, every child in the park, all children that I didn’t even know, sat at the picnic table, engrossed in the story. Peter and Wendy is the story that we know as Peter Pa......more

Goodreads review by Val ⚓️ Shameless Handmaiden ⚓️ on February 17, 2018

Not gonna lie, I had to push myself to get through this. I just didn’t find it enjoyable in the slightest, which makes me feel like a loser since it’s such a beloved children’s classic. But at least I’m an honest loser? I didn’t really like Peter. Wendy annoyed me. And the humor and tone just fell flat f......more
