About This Novel
This book is a novel for adults written by the famous children's literature writer Roald Dahl. A total of 9 short stories about greed are included. Among them, you will read: the poacher who saved the princess but received a strange reward from the king, the butler who easily defeated his hated employer, the story of two arrogant youths and a boy who was bullied by them, and the man who did not know the value of the tattoo on his back... These stories not only shock the soul, but also use fairy tale-like metaphors to persuade people to do good. Cruel thoughts hide in everyone's heart. Once out of control, they will have ridiculous consequences. One of them, "Skin", brought Roald Dahl his third "Edgar Allan Poe Literary Award" in 1980, and was adapted into a British drama, which gained a large audience.
