Enid

Posted in Video November 20th, 2009

I’ve spent the morning watching ‘Enid’, part of a new drama series by the BBC based on ‘Women we loved’. As you grow older it always an interesting experience to learn that the people you might have idolized as a child are in the end, only human. Of course it is difficult to tell how much of Enid Blyton’s life might have been dramatized purely for entertainment or narrative purposes but it was an interesting view of a woman who’s book I spent so much of my childhood absorbed in. I still think the Famous Five and the Mallory Towers series she wrote are some of my favorite childhood books. I’m sure how long the link below will be accessible, but it is worth a watch if you can catch it.
