The authorised biography of one of the greatest storytellers of all time, written with complete access to the archives stored in the Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre.

Enlisting the villagers themselves - who dug test pits in their gardens in search of Roman pottery, were DNA tested to examine their Viking origins and offered up their family collections of photos and documents - and using the archives of the village housed at Merton College Oxford (an archive unique in western Europe...

A plane lands at JFK and mysteriously `goes dark`, stopping in the middle of the runway for no apparent reason, all lights off, all doors sealed. The pilots cannot be raised.

The first thing they discover is that four of the victims are actually still alive. But that`s the only good news. And when all...
Few writers, it seems, are immune to what I call the "Four Friends Formula": take four very different people (women, men, a mix), give them a shared background (often college or university, sometimes an apartment or office), throw in life`s rich pageant, and stir. Voila, a cosmopolitan cocktail (sic) a la Sex and the City. (It doesn`t matter at what stage in her career the author is; Rona Jaffe`s most recent book, THE ROOMMATING SEASON, followed this scenario.) And why not? It offers four different characters, four different storylines, four different perspectives … and more than four ways that things can go wrong.
