Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

If you could see with your eyes closed, how would you use your power? That's what Henry has to decide in "The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar,"one of the seven stories in this extra-ordinary collection. In addition to imaginative and magical tales, this book also contains the true story of how Roald Dahl became a writer, as well as a copy of the very first nonfiction story he wrote for The Saturday Evening Post. Packed with wit and adventure, the collection is a clever mix of fantasy and reality -- and a stunning showcase of Dahl's prose.

The boy who talked with animals -- The hitchhiker -- The Mildenhall treasure -- The swan -- The wonderful story of Henry Sugar -- Lucky break : how I became a writer -- Piece of cake : first story--1942.
