Kiss Kiss

Eleven devious, shocking stories from the master of the unpredictable. What could go wrong when a wife pawns the mink coat that her lover gave her as a parting gift? Or when a priceless piece of furniture is the subject of a deceitful bargain? How can a wronged woman take revenge on her deceased husband or a landlady preserve her guests for ever? In these wickedly anarchic stories, Roald Dahl explores the dark, sinister side of the psyche- the cunning, sly, selfish part of human nature that makes for unexpected outcomes and horrifying conclusions. Stylish, macabre, outrageous and haunting, these eleven tales will leave you feeling uneasy - and wanting more.
