Doroga v rai. Polnoe sobranie rasskazov [Road to Paradise. Collected Stories]

A complete collection of 'adult' short stories from one of the best storytellers of our time, an outstanding master of black humor, an adherent of militant cleanliness and gentle misanthropy. During his long life, Dahl managed to serve in the military aviation, wrote several screenplays, including for Walt Disney, and many books that enjoyed phenomenal success among children and adults and were repeatedly filmed (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Fantastic Mr. Fox, 'Big and kind giant' and others). So, here is a complete collection of famous stories; here a leg of lamb became the murder weapon, a picture of a classic of modern painting was found on the skin of a street tramp, the hostess of the boarding house became interested in taxidermy - and the famous 'Man from the South' (also known as 'Pari') formed the basis of films by A. Hitchcock and K. Tarantino.
