One of several books about the imaginary village of Thrums, which is supposed to be based on Barrie's hometown of Kirriemuir, is A Window in Thrums, which tells the tale of the "untrue son." Barrie was a novelist and playwright from Scotland. He is well known for his play Peter Pan, a fantastical tale about a kid who defied adolescence. Son of a weaver, Barrie pursued his education at the University of Edinburgh. He began a journalism career, worked for a Nottingham daily, and contributed to many London publications before moving to London in 1885. Scottish life is fictionalized in his earliest works, Auld Licht Idylls (1889) and A Window in Thrums (1889). The publication of The Little Minister cemented his status as a novelist (1891). Barrie continued to write novels for the next ten years, but with time his focus shifted to the theatre. He served as chancellor of the University of Edinburgh from 1930 until his death.
