En savoir plus sur le livre

One of Roald Dahl's earliest collections of short stories, Someone Like You begins his bizarre, macabre and blackly amusing journey into the realm of the imagination and the dark side of human nature. A little boy sits on the stairs in 'The Wish', watching as the yellow and black carpet comes alive in the shape of writhing, glistening snakes. In 'Taste', the opening story, a gentleman's bet at a dinner party takes on sinister proportions. 'The Great Automatic Grammatizator' is the darkly satirical tale of how a machine threatens to make writers obsolete, and in 'Skin' an art dealer makes his fortune by trading in human flesh. --back cover
