Tietoa tästä e-kirjasta

A tale of romance and upheaval in a Scottish village by the author of Peter Pan.

Inspired by his mother’s stories of her youth, J. M. Barrie wrote this novel recounting a young man’s life in the little village of Thrums, in which the primary industry is weaving. Gavin is a minister in the austere sect known as the Auld Lichts, and he is about to stumble into love—but not without some elaborate complications. In addition, Thrums will be wracked by unrest as the craft of weaving is affected by the rise of industry, and workers chafe at the treatment they receive.

Lighthearted and witty, yet filled with emotional power and suspense, this was a popular and beloved novel upon publication—even as it was eventually overshadowed in history by the author’s phenomenal classic, Peter Pan.

Tietoja kirjoittajasta

J. M. Barrie (1860–1937) was a Scottish author best known for creating Peter Pan. Born in the small town of Kirriemuir, Barrie was the ninth of ten children. When he was six years old, his older brother David died just before turning fourteen. Both Barrie and his mother took comfort in the idea that David would remain a boy forever, never growing old. Barrie never had children of his own, but was the legal guardian of five brothers, known collectively as the Davies boys, who are widely recognized as the inspiration for the character of Peter Pan.
