Sintesi dell'editore
Two new BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisations of Roald Dahl's gripping autobiographical stories.
These two compelling adaptations, based on Roald Dahl's real-life tales of his of his boyhood and youthful overseas adventures, celebrate his remarkable life and commemorate his genius.
Boy: Dahl's childhood was one of excitement, wonder, terror and sadness. From his fascination with the local sweetshop to the Great Mouse Plot, the horrors of boarding school, the obnoxious Boazers and his time as a chocolate taster for Cadbury's, we hear of the extraordinary events that shaped him and inspired his best-selling books.
Going Solo: setting sail for Africa on the SS Montola, aged 22, Dahl is plunged into an unfamiliar world of eccentric colonial characters. In Tanzania he enjoys life on the savannah, encountering lions and deadly mambas - but when World War II breaks out and he must round up the Germans in Dar es Salaam, he experiences the brutality of war. As he leaves the bush behind and takes to the skies as an RAF pilot, many thrilling adventures and dangerous missions will ensue before he finally makes his way back home.
Starring Patrick Malahide as the voice of Dahl, these colourful dramatisations will carry you away into worlds every bit as amazing, strange and memorable as the ones in his acclaimed fiction. Duration: three hours approx.

Absolutely fascinating and thrilling.
Loved the commentary of this book done by BBC. It was really well-done where the true drama was brought out with colors.

Great story, shame it's only half of the book.
This is a great story (so far) and very well narrated. The problem is, it's only half the book and this is not evident when purchasing.

Best listen so far
Usual Dahl masterpiece! Totally absorbing, his life was full to the brim with amazing adventures, and subtle moments, where he remembers the details about people he met along the way. Some terribly brave, some very eccentric, but always interesting . Fantastic to listen to, highly recommended.

A great account of a much-loved author's life
We listened to this as part of our Roald Dahl week. We decided that as well as listening to his stories,we also wanted to hear his own account of his life. It was great to feel that we were getting to know the man behind his stories, and to hear of some of the trials and celebrations he has had during his lifetime.
