If you are looking for something fiendish, twist -in- the-tale finales type short stories. Here is the book. This book is a collection of 20 stories of Roald Dahl. The longest Story is ‘Claud’s Dog’ and Shortest Story is ‘Dip in the pool’. There was not one story that I did not like in this compilation, this was undoubtedly his best. Here are some brief points, I wish to say for now, but I am emphatically going to talk about this book and his writing in greater detail later. Meanwhile, enjoy this triangle of an after-effect!

Roald Dahl was one of the most successful and well-known of all children’s books. The Times called him one of the most widely read and influential writers of our generation. Have you read Charlie and the chocolate factory or Matilda? Yes, he wrote all these books. But the stories in this book are his adult stories and they all, as it is written on the back of the book, will curdle your blood and scorch your soul.
“So please, oh please, we beg, we pray,
Go throw your TV set away,
And in its place you can install
A lovely bookshelf on the wall.
Then fill the shelves with lots of books.”
― Roald Dahl,
