"Dahl has the mastery of plot and characters possessed by great writers of the past, along with a wildness and wryness of his own. One of his trademarks is writing beautifully about the ugly, even the horrible."--Los Angeles Times

"An ingenious imagination, a fascination with odd and ordinary detail, and a lust for its thorough exploitation are the...strengths of Dahl's storytelling."--New York Times Book Review]]> 4273 4.02 230528 10602 1978 5 0 false Wed Jun 11 20:07:16 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 11 20:07:21 -0700 2008
