description Most of the works of James Matthew Barrie, Peter Pan in particular, explore the relationship between the adult's world and the child's one, with the death set in a privileged location, since only the dead children (as his older brother David) are able to remain as children forever. The following pages show the way in which Barrie explored through literature the complex relationship he had with the world of children from which, like all of us, one day he was expelled. We will see that the way he lived this traumatic exile from his childhood made him unable to ever join the adult world in a normal way. At the same time we will see the opposite problem his character Peter Pan suffers, as he is trapped in an eternal child and deprived of all the pleasures of the adult world.
