Питер Пэн: Мальчик, который ненавидел матерей

Maria Poryadina's lecture is dedicated to the hero of J.M. Barrie's fairy tale, Peter Pan. Maria Poryadina is a literary critic, senior researcher at the Russian Book Chamber, and a member of the expert council of the Kniguru All-Russian Competition for the Best Literary Work for Children and Young Adults. This lecture is about children's books for adults, as well as their characters: naughty boys and good girls, roosters, dogs, and crocodiles. The lecture also touched on blasphemies and renunciations, paradise and idol sacrifices; acorns, shadows, and thimbles. And, of course, parental responsibility.
