Drawing upon extensive archival research and personal correspondence, Andrew Birkin chronicles the complex relationship between J.M. Barrie and the Llewelyn Davies family. This definitive biography examines the psychological origins of Peter Pan, situating the playwright’s creative output within the social constraints and cultural anxieties of the Edwardian era. It offers a nuanced portrait of a man whose literary legacy remains inextricably linked to his fascination with the nature of childhood.
