Someone like you / Roald Dahl

I enjoy reading short stories. But more than that, I enjoy these short stories. Maybe it's the mystery, the author's clever use of word and character, or maybe it's the constant flow of suspense that rises to a head with a spectacular ending. Roald Dahl is well known for his children's stories, but his readers will find something quite different here. His writing style is dark and his plots thrilling. The stories seem to exist for one common goal: to engage the reader - in every possible aspect of the word.

Who would enjoy this? Those that enjoy macabre humour and dark storylines would enjoy Roald Dahl. He keeps his stories witty and fresh and thoroughly enjoyable to read.
