More Tales of the Unexpected

by Roald Dahl
More Tales of the Unexpected
More Tales of the Unexpected

Wickedly witty, unexpected twists, darkly humorous.

Roald Dahl's "More Tales of the Unexpected" offers that tantalizing blend of the macabre and the comical that you might crave if you enjoy stories that twist reality into darkly humorous knots. With a reputation for crafting narratives that surprise and entertain, Dahl ensures that each tale leaves you both unsettled and eager for the next. If you appreciate a good mind-bending tale that's as brilliantly unpredictable as it is succinct, let Dahl's masterful storytelling leave you gasping for more.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Roald Dahl's Tales of the Unexpected is a delightfully dark collection of sixteen stories, each with a startling end. Among the unforgettable characters lurk the homicidal wife and her deadly leg of lamb, a conniving and lecherous wine connoisseur and the one-eyed brain at the mercy of his vengeful spouse. Tales of the Unexpected is an astonishing assortment of twisted treats from the master storyteller.
