William and Mary is a brilliant gem of a short story from Roald Dahl, the master
of the sting in the tail.
In William and Mary, Roald Dahl, one of the world's favourite authors, tells a
sinister story about the darker side of human nature. Here, a wronged woman
takes revenge on her dead husband . . .
William and Mary is taken from the short story collection Kiss Kiss, which
includes ten other devious and shocking stories, featuring the wife who pawns
the mink coat from her lover with unexpected results; the priceless piece of
furniture that is the subject of a deceitful bargain; a husband and wife who hit
upon a novel way to feed their baby; and others.
'Unnerving bedtime stories, subtle, proficient, hair-raising and done to a
turn.' (San Francisco Chronicle )
This story is also available as a Penguin digital audio download read by Juliet
Stevenson and Adrian Scarborough.
