Les histoires qu'invente Roald Dahl, on a envie, après les avoir lues, de courir les raconter à tout le monde. Comme si on les avait vécues ou rêvées soi-même. Au service de cette suite de situations plus ou moins macabres, Roald Dahl met une chatoyante érudition. Qu'il nous parle, juste le temps qu'il faut, de chirurgie, de meubles d'époque, d'apiculture, de musique, de métempsycose ou de braconnage, qu'il emprunte le style " cinéma " ou qu'il pastiche Voltaire, c'est toujours avec le même souci du détail, le même sérieux pince-sans-rire, le même humour noir déguisé.
