Darkly comic stories with unforgettable twists in the tail
Good condition - Minimal overall wear with visible creasing to the upper-right corner of the front cover and small stains on the back cover.
Roald Dahl turns ordinary situations into unsettling, ingenious tales where greed, vanity, revenge and bad luck lead to startling consequences. The stories move from domestic conversations to elaborate schemes, each shaped by precise observation and a delight in reversing the reader’s expectations. Witty, macabre and sharply paced, this collection showcases Dahl’s adult short fiction at its most recognisable. A classic choice for readers who enjoy suspense, black humour and endings that arrive with a sting.
