Roald Dahl

Boy

New York: Farrar Straus Giroux, 1984.

First printing.


Dahl's natural talent for story-telling makes even his account of an English childhood into a gripping narrative.


We can trace some of the strands of his fiction to the tortures of a traditional British private school education of the time, where boys were routinely beaten.


His outrage went on to fuel a comic mistrust of all authority figures and a sympathy for children who rebel.
