The Many Mysteries of the Lilac Inn
Manage episode 442913828 series 2522931
“Shine bright like a diamond / Find light in the beautiful sea / I choose to be happy…”
Did you know that these lyrics were written about The Mystery At Lilac Inn, the fourth Nancy Drew mystery?
Ok, before you call Rihanna on us, we know that they're not. However, we do hope that you'll still stand with us under a proverbial umbrella for a re-read of a Nancy Drew classic*. In this bizarrely action-packed story, Nancy has to find a jewel thief, save herself from a submarine, and navigate a stolen identity. While the true mysteries of Nancy’s world are not discussed within the pages of this book, we take on the hard questions such as whether Nancy actually had a job, and why she is single. We also consider what Nancy Drew meant to us as children, what she means to us now, and the many uses of a Nancy tote bag or purse.
- Like most "classic" books, this one had to be heavily edited between the 1930s and 1960s for racist language and themes.
