Название: Switch Bitch
Жанр: Penguin Group
Год: 2006
Рейтинг:
Описание:
Four stories of seduction and suspense from the pen of the master magician, each with a wicked sting in the tail ... «The Visitor» and «Bitch» are extracts from the diaries of the notorious Oswald Hendryks Cornelius, hedonist beyond compare. Uncle Oswald's exploits are as extraordinary as they are scandalous, as these two tales of sex and intrigue confirm in vivid and hilarious detail. The delicious thrill of sexual expectation — and its sometimes maddening effects — are explored in «The Great Switcheroo» and «The Last Act»; here the power of desire is a double-edged sword, both pleasurable and potentially catastrophic. Lust, triumph, the galling deflation of defeat: Roald Dahl captures it all in these superbly taut black comedies of human weakness and unexpected reversal.

The seven stories in this collection are brilliant examples of the bizarre and the wholly unexpected world that Roald Dahl, 'that great magician' (Spectator), made his own. It includes not only the trademark dark humour and otherworldly goings-on of «The Swan» and «The Boy Who Talked With Animals», but a fascinating short essay on how he started writing, his first ever story, «A Piece of Cake», and the delightfully surprising title tale of a rich young idler who develops a most remarkable ability. Reading them, you'll find that people are far stranger than even you suspected ...
