"The Landlady"


Today, we read one of Roald Dahl's short stories called "The Landlady." Click here to download the story. This is a little bit different from what we've been doing because this is British literature, not American. Because this is a British piece, it has some terms in it you may not know. Click the links to learn more.

  • Eton is a private school in England.
  • Cambridge is a university in England.
  • Bath is a city in England.

Click here to download the questions for this short story.

Just for fun, here's a pretty good (and very accurate) film adaptation of "The Landlady."



"The Landlady" materials are due on Monday, November 11, 2019.

The Gothic Literature Quiz is also on Monday. This quiz will include questions about the Gothic Literature notes, the short story "The Devil and Tom Walker," and the short story "The Landlady."
