I am always so amazed by R. Dahl’s mastery of creating the story teller’s journey, on with which one lightly, effortlessly falls into step with the course he lays before his reader [listener]. His matter of factual telling, as if to a hardy companion, along with random moments that leak forth light from the imagination that dreamt up a giant peach & a very infamous chocolate factory, creates the illusion of one belonging with his world- truly, a MASTER STORYTELLER was he!
