Mr Boggis is a skilled antiques dealer who has a small shop in Chelsea, London. He manages to make a profit each year by buying valuable furniture cheaply from unsuspecting country people while posing as a clergyman and president of the Society for the Preservation of Rare Furniture. He gains entry to their houses in the guise of cataloguing their old furniture; if he sees something he can re-sell, he offers to buy it. In order to buy the furniture for less than it is worth he uses his knowledge and a number of tricks, such as substituting machine-made screws for the genuine old ones. Karma comes around for him in the end.

Always a great ending with Dahl. Have you read Nunc Dimittis or The Visitor? Those have great endings. 👍
I have yes. Nunc Dimittis is on this channel and the visitor I read recently on my other channel. Which you can find here: youtube.com/@bookclub5291
Dahl is the king of the twist ending
Me the kids listen to all of your previous stuff
Glad you guys like the channel. :)
Your readings are wonderful. Is there a way to ask you a question without others seeing it? It is about Roald Dahl.
You can find my email in the about page I think.😀

First of all, you’re an amazing narrator. Your voice is so calming, besides the perfect acting out of characters. I am an actress and I could never do what you do.
I hope this does get to you privately.
I didn’t want any of your listeners to get turned off to reading or listening to you reading Roald Dahl stories.
It’s a real conundrum for me. He was a horrible man. A known anti-semite, a racist and bigot. He treated woman terribly, mostly his wife Patricia Neal. He was a huge philander and worst of all he had an affair with her best friend and subsequently married her. This was while Patricia Neal was recovering from severe strokes.
The British Royal Mint had rejected a proposal to mark the 100th anniversary of Dahl’s birth with a commemorative coin due to the fact that he was “associated with anti-Semitism and not regarded as an author of the highest reputation.” How do we separate the man from his writings?
It may be difficult for you to separate the two knowing all the things you know. I would like to know what your sources were, or are.
This is an interesting broader question beyond the man Dahl isn’t it? The distance between the creator and their creation.
I’ll be honest with you. I didn’t know any of the above, and perhaps some of it is true, maybe all of it is true… but does that change the wonder of his works? Does it change the magic of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? The wonder of Matilda.
Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not defending him if he has behaved in the ways you described, I just think it wouldn’t detract from his magical writings.
For instance, let’s say I added a disclaimer to the beginning of each of the videos, laying out what you’ve said. It would impact each person differently, some would be disgusted, and others wouldn’t care, and all reactions in between.
For me, the man has passed away, so I can’t ask him what he’s been up too. And knowing the narrative nature of the news media, and also the vindictive nature, makes me question the sources you have. That’s my two cents worth. I hope it helps you somewhat. But tell me what you think? 🙏
@@lewiskirk8289 When I reply to you with my thoughts on separating the man from his work and send the article from Time, my reply disappears.
You can send me an email. You’ll find my address in the about page.

Hey Lewis, Catherine here how are you? Hey I know have changed channels however are you willing to read James And the Giant Peach? I know you have done it as a like reading however it's interrupted with ada..
Slip of finger, I apologize! Interrupted with ads. Is there a way to get it again or without the ads. Can I do that myself, the ads ?
I hope you understand. Talk soon
💛 Catherine

👌👌👌
🙂👍
😂😂😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The irony is that the commode is actually a reproduction
We want to see your reaction on ,,,THE LADY OF HEAVEN Movie trailer,,, 💝😍🙏🙏🙏
Totally ruined by the man moaning about not getting paid. Will avoid all his story telling..
I appreciate the feedback. Thanks. 👍
That's not very nice.
How sad. Does make me wonder, what service you provide thousands of people completely free of charge? I can only imagine what an exemplary human being you must be. How dare such a impeccable person's enjoyment of a free audiobook be interrupted for even a second.
I didn’t mind at all.
So pleased to be able to hear your amazing readings.
