520 $aThis book explores the complex ways in which Roald Dahl engages with Wales--the country of his birth and early life--throughout his work. The contributors reveal how both Dahl's books for children and his fiction for adults can illuminatingly be read in terms of their author's Anglo-Welsh identity.
