Peter and The Starcatchers - Differences From The Works of Barrie

Differences From The Works of Barrie

Although Peter and the Starcatchers and its follow-ups are presented as "prequels" to Peter and Wendy, there are a number of differences between them and the original novel, particularly contradicting the material in The Little White Bird, Barrie's story about Peter's early adventures, making this story not canon to Barrie's original works. Most of these differences are established in the first book in the series.

Famous quotes containing the words differences and/or works:

    “I trust the time is nigh when, with the universal assent of civilized people, all international differences shall be determined without resort to arms by the benignant processes of civilization.”
    —Chester A. Arthur (1829–1886)

    “The works of women are symbolical.
    We sew, sew, prick our fingers, dull our sight,
    Producing what? A pair of slippers, sir,
    To put on when you’re weary or a stool
    To stumble over and vex you ... “curse that stool!”
    Or else at best, a cushion, where you lean
    And sleep, and dream of something we are not,
    But would be for your sake. Alas, alas!
    This hurts most, this ... that, after all, we are paid
    The worth of our work, perhaps.”
    —Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
