About this listen

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Bitch by Roald Dahl, read by Derek Jacobi and Richard E. Grant.

In Bitch, Roald Dahl tells a funny, fruity story about one of his favourite characters, adventurer and seducer Oswald Hendryks Cornelius. Here, Uncle Oswald gets involved with an aphrodisiac that drives men wild with passion . . .

Bitch is taken from the short story collection Switch Bitch, which includes three other black comedies which capture the ins and outs, highs and lows of sex (including another Uncle Oswald story, The Visitor).

Critic reviews

One of the most widely read and influential writers of our generation
Dahl is too good a storyteller to become predictable
All stars
Most relevant
Not what you'd expect from Roald Dahl -this is for adults only - but the story really made me laugh and the narration is excellent.

Silly and fun
