Neverland
Neverland: J. M. Barrie, the du Mauriers, and the Dark Side of Peter Pan | Piers Dudgeon
4 posts | 3 read | 11 to read
The untold story of Peter Pan: the shocking account of J.M. Barries abuse and exploitation of the Du Maurier family In his revelatory Neverland, Piers Dudgeon tells the tragic story of J.M. Barrie and the Du Maurier family. Barries fascination and obsession with the Du Maurier family is a shocking study of greed and psychological abuse, and his compulsion to dominate was so apparent to those around him that D. H. Lawrence once wrote: J. M. Barrie has a fatal touch for those he loves. They die.

Spent part of today at the Meeting House for library work day. Then I go onto the public library and find these lovelies from the library store. And now I have my own copy of Neverland.

After reading this you will never look at Peter Pan the same way again.

Second library score of the day. I went to the Lawrence library and got more books. In this group the major find was Neverland. I ordered during the Christmas season from my usual book seller, Edward R. Hamilton, but they ran out. So I am excited to find it today.
