Publisher's Synopsis
Roald Dahl is one of the greatest storytellers of all time. He pushed children's literature into uncharted territory and almost 20 years after his death his popularity continues to grow. In this masterly biography, written with exclusive access to his private papers and manuscripts as well as with reference to hundreds of newly-discovered letters, Donald Sturrock reveals many hitherto hidden aspects of the author's life. Dahl lives on every page of this utterly compelling book, which reveals the man as we've never seen him before.
