The BFG
A comment just prompted me to write about my favorite book right now, Roald Dahl's The BFG. My husband and I just rediscovered this darkly whimsical children's classic and have been cracking up over it ever since. The silly language and the chapter about "whizzpoppers" and the Queen of England make our juvenile hearts excessively happy. As do the names of the bigger, unfriendly giants: Fleshlumpeater, Bonecruncher, Manhugger, Bloodbottler, Maidmasher, Gizzardguzzler, etc. Dahl delights in the macabre and his joyful, twisted names for the giants reflects it.
Anyone who has not read this delightful tale must run to the bookstore (or the children's section of the library) and buy it RIGHT NOW! Really, in this dark age of Yankee dominance and political malevolence, you need something clean, fun and brutal to clear your soul.
