Roald Dahl

Meer over het boek

'Jeremy Treglown's shrewd and sparkling biography is as compulsively readable as its subject's revolting rhymes and twisted tales.' Sunday Times 'Dahl was colourful, noisy, dominating, possibly a genius, certainly an expert in self-publicity. Jeremy Treglown, his biographer, is calm, judicial, accurate, quietly brilliant.' Penelope Fitzgerald, Evening Standard 'Excellent and briskly paced . . . It is one of the many virtues of this biography that one finishes it feeling rather a strong liking for Dahl, all 6ft 6in of him.' Humphrey Carpenter, Sunday Times
