It’s hard to believe now, but he simply continued the interview, was courteous if cold, and even asked if I had enough material for my article. I said that I had more than enough, thank you very much. There was a polite goodbye, the interview ran in the next edition of the magazine, and while there was a good amount of shock and outrage, nothing really happened. In spite of his views Dahl became even more popular and even more wealthy, his books are regularly made into films, and there was even a glowing biopic made about him. My interview would go on to be quoted every few years but was largely forgotten until now.
