Small Red Spot On Breast

The great cambiazo / Roald Dahl

I've always felt a weakness for short stories long. It is not easy to write. Maintain tension and interest demands a certain quality of work that is not achieved over the years. And also, I've always had a weakness for the work of Roald Dahl, who read it, curiously, in the first instance one of his adult My Uncle Oswald and then took a quantum leap to say its great and sensitive work for adolescents. In The Great cambiazo, spicy Dahl tells four stories about sexual freedom. There are two major daily notes of the libertine Is it right to call rake Uncle Oswald?, Oswald Hendryks Cornelius. The others are sparkling versions of sex. It is curious that the work of a writer can unfold much as the work of the British, who always seems to be jumping, nervous, unexpectedly, from a girl who has magical powers to the irresistible Copper Anna, a woman who lost her husband and flirts with suicide until he meets an old lover who take an unexpected end, in "The Last Act", one of the stories that make up this book. The other texts are: "The Visitor", a chronicle of Uncle Oswald when a mysterious man invites him to his house in the desert, where he met two outstanding women, "The big change had, the story of two husbands who confabulate a plan to exchange wives for a night, "The last act" of which I spoke, and finally the story of "Bitch," another story of Uncle Oswald where he helps a scientist to discover the aroma that can put men in heat, more?, a reader asked wryly. Yes, more. In this case, no matter that they tell stories, read Roald Dahl has a magic invaluable. In making his books are always the most attentive reader so be reading Agu Trot or The big poke.
The great change had , Roald Dahl, Anagram, 1994, 170 pages.
