Enid Blyton Adultery: Is Nothing Sacred??

We're not sure how she got *one* man - let alone two
Noddy. The Famous Five. The Secret Seven. Thatched cottages and lashings of ginger beer. That’s the Enid Blyton we know. But a new TV drama, starring Helena Bonham-Carter and with the approval of Blyton’s daughter Imogen is set to reveal that the author was actually “bonkers”.
Maybe that’s no news to anyone, but the show also reveals that she was a cold-blooded adulteress. Cripes!
Blyton’s daughters have explicitly endorsed the show’s portrayal of heras a weird, distant and manipulative mother. Amongst authors of children’s books, this is surprisingly common. It is held by some that the best children’s authors are themselves childlike and unable to deal with adult relationships.
Having said that, there was nothing childlike in Blyton’s affairs – which were numerous. Perhaps the most stunning news of all is that her elder daughter is to announce in an upcoming book of reminisces about life with her mother that Blyton was also having a lesbian affair with the girls’ nanny.
If this sort of thing is common among children’s authors, we’re still hoping that J.K. Rowling is still playing the field. She’s a prime piece of wizard-writing ass, and no mistake.
