Publisher's Synopsis

Penguin Audiobooks presents a brand new recording of Someone Like You, Roald Dahl's first collection of his world famous dark and sinister adult stories, brought to life by an all-star cast including Julian Rhind-Tutt, Stephen Mangan, Tamsin Greig, Derek Jacobi, Richard Griffiths, Willl Self, Jessica Hynes, Juliet Stevenson, Adrian Scarborough and Richard E. Grant.

A wife serves a dish that baffles the police; a harmless bet suddenly becomes anything but; a curious machine reveals a horrifying truth about plants; and a man lies awake waiting to be bitten by the venomous snake asleep on his stomach.

Through vendettas and desperate quests, bitter memories and sordid fantasies, Roald Dahl's stories portray the strange and unexpected, sending a shiver down the spine.


Stories include: Taste, Lamb to the Slaughter, Man from the South, The Soldier, My Lady Love, My Dove, Dip in the Pool, Galloping Foxley, Skin, Poison, The Wish, Neck, The Sound Machine, Nunc Dimittis, The Great Automatic Grammatizator, Claud's Dog.

Also published in paperback, ebook, and as digital audiobooks.
