Alan Moore's pornographic Alice/Wendy/Dorothy graphic novel
It may be tired news at this point (thanks a lotRich Johnston), but Sci-Fi author/BoingBoing contributor does make some fascinating statements behind the psycho-sexual basis of Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie's Lost Girls erotica graphic novel.
Alan Moore's pornographic Alice/Wendy/Dorothy graphic novel: "Cory Doctorow: The meta-story of the three heroines of Lost Girls is fascinating. JM Barrie, author of Peter Pan, suffered such terrible emotional abuse as a boy that he developed something called "psychogenic dwarfism," which caused him never to go through puberty. Charles Dodgson (Lewis Carroll), took chaste-but-creepy photos of naked little girls. L Frank Baum based Dorothy on a downtrodden and abused girl he met as a Kansas schoolteacher. Previous authors have made the link between these girls, their authors, and the buried dark erotic sub-currents in their stories -- see, for example, Geoff Ryman's World Fantasy Award-winning novel WAS, about L Frank Baum and Dorothy."
