Boy es el relato de su infancia. Momentos familiares maravillosos se mezclan con otros más tristes, y aventuras llenas de peligro siguen a otras desternillantes. La pérdida de su padre y su hermana, el gran complot de los ratones, las vacaciones en una remota isla, los castigos en el colegio y el paseo que casi le cuesta la nariz son sólo algunos de los inolvidables episodios de este libro lleno de aventuras.
Kurzes, schönes Buch und erholsam, auch mal was über eine – zumindest was die Familienseite angeht – glückliche Kindheit und Jugend zu lesen. Weniger harmlos: die Schule, was man ahnen kann, wenn man schon mal irgendwas über britische Internate oder irgendwas von Roald Dahl gelesen hat.
Roald Dahl'in çocukluğu ve okul hayatını anlattığı güzel bir kitap. O zamanlar okul okumanın ne kadar zor olduğunu anlatması açısından önemli.
Roald Dahl is a great narrator, and so, even the most trivial anecdotes about his childhood are fun to read. It is not a great book as a whole simply because it consists of a bunch on loosely connected stories he remembers, but getting to know these details of his life and his family really put a perspective on who he is a s a writer and a human.
Worth reading, but not life changing.
