Peter lets them starve sometimes when he feels like he doesn't want to eat real food, just make-believe food, and no child must dare to question his sound logic and wishes.Īt no point the narrator - who seems to love this boy - gives the reader a solid reason to like him. So fuck everyone else, this is his dictatorship. He doesn't allow the other children to be smarter than him or talk about 'mothers' because he doesn't like it. Not a way of saying he expells them, he kills them. Not only that, but it is true, and clearly said that Peter kills the kids who 'dare' to grow up. A problematic protagonist who is treated as a hero and a good person by the narrative, who never learns anything, who never gets his faults even questioned, and sold as a grand example.
