Una tranquilla mestressa de casa que ordeix el crim perfecte. Un vell tatuador arruinat a qui li plantegen una oferta tan sucosa com enverinada. Un home de negocis perfeccionista que es desespera quan un desagradable personatge li desmunta la rutina quotidiana. Un passatger dun vaixell que ho arriscara tot per guanyar una aposta impossible. A Algu com tu, Roald Dahl explora els conflictes didentitat i desplega magistralment el seu mortifer i macabre humor negre. Ho fa amb una mirada cinica, penetrant i corrosiva que ens endinsa en la part fosca de personatges quotidians que inesperadament colloca en situacions limit que els empenten a actuar duna manera imprevisible. Com ens pot passar a qualsevol de nosaltres. El mestre absolut dels relats amb final inesperat, com el va qualificar The Observer, aplega en aquest volum alguns dels relats que van formar part de la popular serie Alfred Hithcock presenta i que van triomfar tambe a ladaptacio televisiva dHistories imprevistes. Una obra amb que celebrem el centenari del naixement dun dels escriptors mes influents i estimats de tots els temps.
