Someone Like You

Autor Roald Dahl
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2011

Optsprezece povetiri macabre demonstrează încă o dată abilitățile remarcabile și versatilitatea autorului britanic Roald Dahl. 
Printre ceea ce veți citi se numără poveste unui vârstnic care atrage atenția celor care sunt mai mult interesați de culoarea pielii sale decât de starea lui sufletească, pariuri riscante se pun la cale: o fiică și un Cadillac sunt în centrul acțiunii, iar umorul negru își face loc în povestirea dedicată unui soț care are ocazia să se răzbune pe soția lui.

The absolute master of the twist in the tale

Descriere scurtă

In Someone Like You are fifteen classic tales told by the grand master of the short story, Roald Dahl.
Here, in Roald Dahl's first collection of his world famous dark and sinister adult stories, a wife serves a dish that baffles the police; a harmless bet suddenly becomes anything but; a curious machine reveals a horrifying truth about plants; and a man lies awake waiting to be bitten by the venomous snake asleep on his stomach.
Through vendettas and desperate quests, bitter memories and sordid fantasies, Roald Dahl's stories portray the strange and unexpected, sending a shiver down the spine.
