Parental advisory: not suitable for adults - Books - Times Online
G. P. Taylor identifes himself with Roald Dahl and defines reviewers as "adults who would like to write books but can’t"...
As adult fiction increasingly moves towards the banal demands of large chains selling the literary equivalent of soma, so it is the realm of the children’s author to deal with the more weighty matters of life, death and the reason for living. I was shocked when a recent survey declared that 60 per cent of my readers were adults with an even male-female split.
