5.0 out of 5 stars Dare Wright has a new fan!, 16 Mar 2005
This review is from: The Secret Life of the Lonely Doll: The Search for Dare Wright (Hardcover)
It is a very long time since I have been so enthralled and submerged into a biography as I became when reading Jean Nathan's; 'The secret life of the lonely doll'.

Dare Wright, whom I knew very little about before, is now on my list of favourites. Not so much because of her children's books as such, even though they are a huge part of whom she was, but mostly because of the mysterious, complex and tragic person behind the glamorous facade. I would say Dare Wright are close to be the female Peter Pan.

Jean Nathan has opened the door to a very lonely and highly talented woman, that created her own fantasy world and lived in it. Her story somehow refuses to leave my mind, even though it is more than six months since I read it.
