For over a century, readers have been captivated by Saki's (a.k.a Hector Hugh Munro) distinctive humor. His writing, both macabre and sometimes vicious, manages to capture the absurdities of Edwardian England with precision.
Saki's characters are typically members of the upper classes, particularly his anti-heroes like Clovis and Reginald, who could easily fit into P.G. Wodehouse's world of 'Bertie Wooster'.
Hypocrisy is a central theme in Saki's work, with retribution often coming from unexpected sources such as birds, animals, and children.
This collection features Saki's novels, short story collections, and standalone stories - a total of 145 works that showcase his unique style.
