Roald Dahl – Twitch Twitch – UK Paperback Editions 1976 – SIGNED and INSCRIBED
£750.00
A reprint set of four softcovers published by Penguin in 1976. All very good copies all SIGNED and INSCRIBED on the title page ‘To Douglas/Love/Roald/’. A very good set of boxed copies with a strong association to Dahl himself.
Douglas Highton attended St Peter’s Prep School in Weston-super-Mare with Roald Dahl. As a friend, Douglas supported Roald during an incident at school, which Roald would never forget and later recounted in his autobiographical book ‘Boy’. Douglas also appears anecdotally in the short story ‘Lucky Break’, and as a character in the short story ‘The Swan’. The two stayed in touch over the years and Douglas would visit Roald at home in Great Missenden where Roald kindly signed many books for Douglas’ grandchildren, Andrew and Rebecca
