Kiss Kiss, Roald Dahl
Kiss Kiss is a collection of short stories by Roald Dahl, first published in 1960 by Jonathan Cape in London and Alfred Knopf in the USA. Most of the constituent stories had been previously published elsewhere.
It contains the following short stories:
- The Landlady
- William and Mary
- The Way Up to Heaven
- Georgy Porgy
- Parson's Pleasure
- Mrs Bixby and the Colonel's Coat
- Royal Jelly
- Genesis and Catastrophe
- Edward the Conqueror
- Pig
- The Champion of the World
Without becoming horror, these are some of Dahl's more macabre stories. Delicately, the naïve punish the wicked, but also the other way around.
The Champion of the World is a condensed version of the story that would become Dahl's 1977 children's book, Danny the Champion of the World .
