The intriguing Dear Brutus is reminiscent of Barrie’s famed Peter Pan, in that it traces a group of people who enter a magic wood. Here they are transformed into the people they might have become had they made different choices. After the characters confront themselves, they must return to their lives and face the choices they made in the past, good or bad.

This early (1888) work of fiction by the creator of Peter Pan is based on newspaper sketches about small-town life in Scotland. Barrie also drew on his mother’s stories about her home town. He published two more books in this series, A Window in Thrums (1889) and The Little Minister (1891).

The creator of Peter Pan revisits his ancestral village in this 1889 work. Again he draws upon his mother’s stories about a small-town in Scotland; A Window in Thrums is one of Barrie’s most poignant novels. Of it he wrote: “It is a sadder book to me than it can ever be to anyone else.”
