About this listen
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Only This by Roald Dahl, read by Sophie Okonedo.
In Only This, Roald Dahl tells of a mother restlessly waiting for her bomber crewman son to return form a raid . . .
Only This is taken from the short story collection Over to You, which includes nine other dramatic and terrifying tales of life as a wartime fighter pilot, and is drawn from Dahl's own experiences during the Second World War.
