Someone Like You by Roald Dahl

There's the gambler who collects little fingers from losers... there's the lady who murders her husband with a frozen leg of lamb... not to mention the man who has made a machine that can hear grass scream... Roald Dahl's particular brand of bizarre, alarming and disturbing story-telling has already attracted a huge following which can only be more disturbed, alarmed and - thankfully - amused by "Someone Like You."
