The Letters of James M. Barrie is a collection of personal letters written by the renowned Scottish author, playwright, and creator of Peter Pan, James M. Barrie. The letters were compiled and edited by Viola Meynell, a literary critic and author who was a close friend of Barrie's. The book contains a selection of Barrie's letters written over several decades, from the late 1800s to the early 1930s. The letters provide a fascinating insight into Barrie's life and work, as well as his relationships with other writers, artists, and public figures of the time. The letters cover a wide range of topics, from Barrie's childhood memories and early literary ambitions, to his experiences as a successful playwright and novelist. They also reveal his close friendships with fellow writers such as George Bernard Shaw and H.G. Wells, as well as his love for the actress Mary Ansell, whom he married in 1894. Throughout the book, Barrie's wit, humor, and literary prowess shine through, making this a must-read for anyone interested in the life and work of one of the greatest writers of the 20th century. The Letters of James M. Barrie is a valuable resource for scholars and students of literature, as well as for anyone who loves a good story.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
