The Brilliant Saki

From the wonderful and wacky to the beastly and bizarre, this fabulous collection is like a Whitman's Sampler, providing a delicious taste of Saki's most uproarious tales populated with some of his most enduring characters. The antics of juvenile delinquents Clovis and Reginald, and the rest of the Saki's population of insane characters will have you in stitches as they maneuver through a marvelously entertaining set of offbeat adventures. Saki (or H.H. Munro) is one of the greatest writers of short fiction ever in the entire history of the universe. No exaggeration. His hilarious, slightly morbid tales of the bored and felonious English aristocratic set are as addictive as popcorn. Ever Saki story is told with unique flare and a sensational caustic wit. Any fan of Dahl, Wilde, Wodehouse, or anyone who loves a laugh cannot possibly go wrong with a book of Saki's.
