About This Item

Constable 1979 (1st UK). 1st Edition . Hardcover. Fine. A wonderful copy of Birkin's sensitively written story of J. M. Barrie's relationship with the four sons of Sylvia and Arthur Llewellyn Davies who, after the death of their parents, he adopted and raised. Some modern commentators have suggested that Barrie's relationship with the boys was exploitative or sexual in nature but the evidence presented in this book shows a lonely man, still affected by the death of his older brother in childhood, who had an almost magical vision of childhood which he was able to share with the boys. Andrew Birkin, wrote this book after he had produced the award winning television mini series of the same name. Includes a laid in postcard of the Michael Llewelyn Davies photo cover art, with both book and postcard being extensively signed and dedicated by the author. Slight rubbing to top of postcard and two pin holes. Fine in a Fine d/w.
