"Dodo Wonders" by E. F. Benson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the character Dodo, who is depicted as a vivacious and somewhat whimsical woman maneuvering through the complexities of her social life, all while engaging in profound discussions about existence, free will, and aging with her friend Edith. The narrative captures the dialogue and the philosophical musings of these characters, presenting an exploration of their thoughts amidst the backdrop of their lively interactions. At the start of the novel, Dodo and her friend Edith converse over tea, exploring themes of free will and aging. Edith has just returned from a successful musical tour, prompting Dodo to reflect on her own life choices and the illusion of control over them. Their discussions reveal Dodo's lively personality and her somewhat childlike curiosity about life, as she muses on various topics, from artistic triumphs to aging gracefully. As they share their experiences, it becomes clear that Dodo embraces a youthful spirit despite societal expectations of maturity, setting the tone for a humorous and thoughtful exploration of life’s complexities.
