À propos de cet audio
Seven superb stories, from the world's no. one storyteller.
Meet the boy who can talk to animals and the man who can see with his eyes closed. And find out about the treasure buried deep underground. A cleaver mix of fact and fiction, this collection also includes how master storyteller Roald Dahl became a writer. With Roald Dahl, you can never be sure where reality ends and fantasy begins.

Mr. and Mrs. Twit are the smelliest, nastiest, ugliest people in the world. They hate everything - except playing mean jokes on each other, catching innocent birds to put in their Bird Pies, and making their caged monkeys, the Muggle-Wumps, stand on their heads all day. But the Muggle-Wumps have had enough. They don't just want out, they want revenge.

This is not a fairy tale. This is about real witches. Grandmamma loves to tell about witches. Real witches are the most dangerous of all living creatures on Earth. There's nothing they hate so much as children, and they work all kinds of terrifying spells to get rid of them. Her grandson listens closely to Grandmamma's stories - but nothing can prepare him for the day he comes face-to-face with The Grand High Witch herself!

The BFG is no ordinary bone-crunching giant. He is far too nice and jumbly. It's lucky for Sophie that he is. Had she been carried off in the middle of the night by the Bloodbottler, or any of the other giants - rather than the BFG - she would have soon become breakfast. When Sophie hears that the giants are flush-bunking off to England to swollomp a few nice little chiddlers, she decides she must stop them once and for all. And the BFG is going to help her!

Willy Wonka's famous chocolate factory is opening at last! But only five lucky children will be allowed inside. And the winners are: Augustus Gloop, an enormously fat boy whose hobby is eating; Veruca Salt, a spoiled-rotten brat whose parents are wrapped around her little finger; Violet Beauregarde, a dim-witted gum-chewer with the fastest jaws around; Mike Teavee, a toy pistol-toting gangster-in-training who is obsessed with television; and Charlie Bucket, our hero, a boy who is honest and kind, brave and true, and good and ready for the wildest time of his life!

Ce que les critiques en disent
"Few modern writers have attracted such an appreciative audience among adults and children as Dahl.... All the tales are entrancing inventions." (Publishers Weekly)
“Roald Dahl sometimes shared a tonal kinship with Ogden Nash, and he could demonstrate a verbal inventiveness nearly Seussian...[His] stories work better in audio than in print.” (The New York Times)

Great medley of stories for Roald Dahl fans
This collection is a bit of a hodgepodge. It includes a story that is mostly for kids (about a boy and a turtle) that reads like an episode of the Twilight Zone, but the rest is mostly for adults. In fact, if you like Roald Dahl short stories for grow-ups, this is the only collection currently available on audible. It also includes a short story based on Dahl's experience of being a fighter pilot in the second World War, and an autobiographical account ("Lucky Break") about how Dahl (met President Roosevelt and writer E.M.Forster and) became a writer. The biographical material is reminiscent of his books "Boy" and "Going Solo". The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar occupies a disproportionate space in this collection: it is more a novella than a short story. It is bizarre, intriguing, unbelievable, and includes a clunky "mise en abime" (a story within a story... within a story), but it all somehow comes together and leaves a lasting impression.
Narration: Andrew "Moriarty" Scott is excellent: good pace; emotional contrasts, silly accents and fun characterizations. His performance of the pickpocket in "The Hitchhiker" is particularly funny.
I wish all the stories in this collection were like "The Hitchhiker", which brings me to ask: please Audible, produce some of Dahl's collections of short stories for adults (such as "Kiss Kiss" and "Over to You")!
