Über dieses E-Book

"Peter Pan" ("Peter and Wendy") is a fairy tale story by James Barry, the main character of which is a runaway boy who did not want to become an adult. The story was published in 1911 and has since become a worldwide children's classic. "Peter Pan" constantly surprises the unprepared reader. Despite the childish beginning, the story reflects the sad events of real life that haunted Barry himself. The story's sarcastic and caustic style and its complex themes—death, the power of the imagination, and the bittersweetness of growing up—give depth and complexity to the text, which explains its resonance with adult readers. This edition is illustrated with great classic drawings from F.D. Bedford.
