Synopsis "Peter pan (in Spanish)"

Son pocos los escritores que como James Matthew Barrie pueden presumir de haber contribuido con su escritura a la creación de un mito. Autores de la talla de Mark Twain o Robert Louis Stevenson eran plenamente conscientes en su época de la valía artística de Barrie. Aunque su obra más conocida suele prescribirse para niños, la complejidad y la madurez de su discurso lo excluyen no pocas veces del canon de la literatura infantil, por lo que a menudo queda relegado al limbo o país de Nunca Jamás de los inclasificables.(*CR*)Muchos y variados son los textos del escritor escocés que se relacionan en mayor o menor medida con el personaje de Peter Pan. El niño que no quería crecer es la luz y la oscuridad de una época que sigue siendo la nuestra y ha calado en nuestra sociedad de manera insólita. Esta edición reúne una nueva traducción del corpus esencial de «Peter Pan», es decir, de todos aquellos títulos escritos por Barrie en los que Peter Pan es el principal protagonista.(*CR*)

J.M. Barrie (Kirriemuir, Scotland, 1860 - London, 1937) was a Scottish writer and playwright best known as the creator of Peter Pan. Born into a family of modest craftsmen, he had a happy childhood until the death of a brother when he was just six years old deeply altered family life and disturbed his mother's mental health, turning her into an unbalanced, authoritarian, and inflexible person, whose influence and memory forever weighed on James. Barrie's main longing for the rest of his life was to regain the happiness of his early years and he always maintained a childlike nuance in his personality. In London, he gained fame with his novels and plays. It was also there that he met the children of the Llewelyn Davies family, who inspired him to write Peter Pan, the play about a boy who did not want to grow up and about Wendy, his adventure partner in Neverland. Years later he turned it into a novel: Peter and Wendy was a true phenomenon in the Edwardian era, the British Belle Époque that combined years of innocence, hedonism, and carefreeness before World War I.
