Synopsis:

Kensington Gardens weaves an intricate narrative spanning more than a century from Victorian London to the dawn of the new millennium. Narrated by children's novelist Peter Hook it is a story not only of Hook's life but also that of J. M. Barrie, Peter Pan and the Llewelyn Davies Boys. Over the course of one night in Kensington Gardens, a fantastical and terrible story emerges: a story of shadow identities and suicide, lost boys and found orphans. Kensington Gardens is an exploration of the charms and perils of children’s literature, told in the torrential prose of a Latin American master.
