Story behind the story

[edit]

In his autobiographical sketch "Lucky Break: How I Became a Writer", Dahl tells an anecdote which obviously refers to "The Way Up To Heaven", although he doesn't mention the story by name: "I was once driving alone on a country road and an idea came for a story about someone getting stuck in an elevator between two floors in an empty house..." Perhaps that information could be incorporated here. Muzilon (talk) 06:05, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
