A Taste of the Unexpected
by Roald Dahl
- 2 Want to read
Every book tells a story ... And the 70 titles in the Pocket Penguins series are emblematic of the re nowned breadth and quality that formed part of the original Penguin vision in 1935 and that continue to define our publishing today. Together, they tell one version of the unique story of Penguin Books.
As well as being famous the world over for his darkly humorous children's tales — all published by Puffin — Roald Dahl is also known for his compelling and twisted short stories, all of which are published in Penguin paperback. A Taste of the Unexpected gathers together three sinister tales that fully exhibit Dahl's mastery of suspense and his unsur- passed ability to tease the reader until the very last sentence.
