For generations the elements of humor, poignancy, fantasy, and
unfettered morality found within acclaimed children s author Roald
Dahl s most famous tales have captivated both children and adults.
Classics like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the
Giant Peach, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Matilda, and The BFG may initially
appear to be yarns spun for the amusement of the adolescent mind,
however, upon digging deeper one uncovers a treasure trove of
philosophical richness that is anything but childish, but in fact
reveals the true existential weight, and multi-layered meaning of
some of our favorite children s stories. Editor Jacob M. Held has
collected the insights of today s leading philosophers into the
significances, messages, and greater truths at which Dahl s
rhythmic writing winks, revealing a whole new way to appreciate the
creation of a man and mind to which readers of all ages are still
drawn."
