Roald Dahl

7 Series

Roald Dahl (1916-1990) was a British author renowned for his fantasy and children's literature, including classics such as "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," "Matilda," and "James and the Giant Peach." Born in Wales to Norwegian parents, he served as a flying ace in the Royal Air Force during World War II. His wartime experiences inspired his early writing, which gained recognition after C.S. Forester published his stories. Dahl is celebrated as one of the most influential children's authors of the 20th century.

Roald Dahl, in collaboration with Felicity Dahl, co-authored "Memories with Food at Gipsy House" and "Roald Dahl's Cookbook." These works intertwine culinary experiences with personal anecdotes, offering readers a glimpse into Dahl's life. The books serve as both a memoir and a collection of recipes, reflecting the warmth and hospitality of Gipsy House. They provide a unique blend of storytelling and gastronomy, appealing to fans of Dahl's distinctive narrative style.
