H.H. Munro (Saki) is one of the undisputed masters of the short story. In this complete compendium, the full gamut of his subjects and themes is experienced. His stories are imbued with humorous satire, biting irony, and often the macabre, all of which have one target: the stupidities and hypocrisies of Edwardian upper-class society.

First published in 1912, The Unbearable Bassington stands as Saki’s most substantial venture into longer fiction, and perhaps his most poignant. Known primarily for his razor-edged short stories—where wit, mischief, and a certain cool cruelty dance in quick succession—Saki (H. H. Munro) brings those same gifts to this novel, but with a deeper, darker resonance.

Ein nackter Junge mit den Augen eines Tieres. Ein Dorf, das Kinder verliert. Und ein Geheimnis, das nur bei Sonnenuntergang Gestalt annimmt… Als Van Cheele in den Wäldern einem seltsamen Jungen begegnet, beginnt ein Albtraum zwischen Mensch und Bestie. Gabriel-Ernest ist Sakis brillant-boshafte Variante der Werwolflegende – kurz, scharf und tödlich.

A superb anthology of 40 great classic humorous stories.

Saki (December 18, 1870 - November 14, 1916) was the clever pen name of British author Hector Hugh Munro. Renowned for his sharp wit and peculiar storytelling, Sakis short stories offer a satirical lens on Edwardian culture. Often likened to literary luminaries such as O. Henry, Dorothy Parker, and influenced by the likes of Noel Coward and Oscar Wilde, Saki is celebrated as a master of the short story form. His first collection, Reginald, was published by Methuen Press in 1904, featuring tales that originally graced the pages of the Westminster Gazette. Through the jaded yet insightful ...

Step into a whimsical yet biting exploration of British politics through the eyes of Alice, penned by Saki in 1902, five years before John Kendrick Bangs introduced his own take with Alice in Blunderland. In this series of satirical articles, Alice encounters a political landscape even more bewildering than Wonderland itself. While the satires relevance has faded over time, understanding the historical context enriches the experience. As a non-historian, Ive delved into the political intricacies to provide notes that help illuminate the events and characters for todays listener. You can find ...
