All in all, the bears end up adopting Edith into their odd family, Mr. Following the benevolent story line of every classic, her luck gears up and she stumbles upon a set of stuffed bears. Little doll Edith, named after Dare’s mother, lives alone in a mansion with everything she wanted, except for true friends. The cover shows a shapely felt Lenci Doll from the 1920s, which belonged to Dare herself as a child, and attracted young women and children of the 1950’s and 60’s to open the paperback and delve into the story of, well, a lonely doll. Written by the stunning, talented photographer/model/actress Dare Wright, the pink and white checkered novel was flying off the shelves faster than they could be restocked. Jean Nathan has a story to tell, proving the assumptions otherwise as she writes The Secret Life of The Lonely Doll: The Search for Dare Wright.įor those who grew up in the time era of The Lonely Doll, it was probably a childhood favorite. She did not have a perfect, fit-for-the-movies relationship with her parents, she did not have friends knocking at her door every evening, and she certainly did not have cookies and milk to come home to every day after school. The life of Dare Wright did not quite fit the stereotype of adolescent euphoria developed for children’s story writers. Reviewing the story of a lonely doll in search of friends, The Secret Life of The Lonely Doll: The Search for Dare Wright uncovers the secrets of the author of The Lonely Doll hidden in the text of her biggest seller.
