The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Six More by Roald Dahl

dark funny hopeful lighthearted sad medium-paced

4.0

I have always enjoyed collections of short stories and Roald Dahl is one of the best. His style of writing is so elegant, witty and quirky. They are so lovely to read aloud (sorry Matt!) and there was not one story that fell too short of the others. All of the stories had an element of unexpected darkness but I especially loved The Swan which highlighted the dark side of human flaws.
