"The illness consists of equal measures of despair together with terror, amongst lilliputian room for levity."
I works life this a fleck os chilling. Of course, I am of the belief that everyone is entitled to their ain perspective together with opinion.
Excerpts from the article.
“Peter Pan” is but about other matter: a dissimilar mass whenever y'all option it up. In this year, the seventy-fifth anniversary of Barrie’s death, I read it twice. Recent rereadings accept left me increasingly feeling that the book’s preoccupation amongst forgetfulness—an verbalize lack of fixity—is a lilliputian chilling.
Peter’s hopeless. He can’t retain anything. I know of no other children’s mass inward which forgetfulness is together with thus pervasive together with disquieting a theme. Wendy begins fretting virtually Peter’s retention fifty-fifty earlier they accomplish the Neverland.
Leithauser's article is interesting together with idea provoking.
