Descrizione
In this nostalgic work, Dahl combines recollections of his early years with reflections on the changing seasons...
In a delightful month-by-month journey through the passing year, Roald Dahl mixes past and present; reminiscences of childhood and adolescence are interwoven with his observations about the changing seasons and the festivals we celebrate.
Dahl's love of nature was a deep and abiding one. He kept careful notes about the animals, birds, flowers, plants and berries of the countryside around his home, Gypsy House. In the last year of his life, he recorded his thoughts in this fresh and memorable account.
My Year contains some of the most remarkable of Roald Dahl's writing. Watercolor illustrations by Dahl's frequent collaborator, Quentin Blake, are suffused with the beauty of the countryside Dahl loved so much. My Year will delight adults and children equally. It is a book to linger over, to savor and enjoy, and to return to year after year.
