Relatos fantásticos de gatos y trenes es un intento por reivindicar a dos criaturas que por frecuentación o excesiva confianza solemos rebajar a simples arquetipos. Los gatos y los trenes ocupan un lugar privilegiado en este libro, y no justamente por asociaciones caprichosas sino por astucias mutuas, por sincronías, por merodeos cómplices en la noche. Los narradores clásicos incluidos evidencian un destino que pocos han logrado eludir: es imposible escribir un relato habitado por felinos o ferrocarriles sin que el misterio sea el verdadero protagonista.

With something for everyone this collection of classic stories read by only the best-suited and most established readers will delight the ears as a vintage wine excites the gullet; The Vintage Collection is audible gold.

CSA Word continues its ever-popular series of classic short stories, featuring writers such as Jerome K. Jerome, Louisa May Alcott and Saki, read by such respected and revered readers as Derek Jacobi, Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry.

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.

Delve into the captivating world of Saki, the pen name of British author Hector Hugh Munro (1870-1916). His stories vividly juxtapose the refined yet hollow conventions of Edwardian England against the raw, unfiltered struggles of nature, where survival reigns supreme. In Saki’s narratives, nature often emerges victorious, revealing the stark truths behind civilizations facades. (Summary from Wikipedia)

One of the most enduring themes in literature through the ages has been the internal conflict between two sides of a single character. It manifests itself in different ways, from the classic werewolf story to souls which are invaded by evil spirits to the pseudo sci-fi of Jekyll and Hyde to strange tales of total amnesia as in Barry Pain's masterpiece "The Missing Years". This collection brings together a selection of different tales, in each of which tension is created when a human soul is split into more than one part.

The delicious, biting wit of Saki's short stories satirizing Edwardian high society are some of the funniest and most delightful of exquisite literary miniatures. In this second volume, there are 22 glittering examples.

The Chronicles of Clovis, published in 1911, was the third in Saki (H. H. Munro)'s series of very funny and very vicious stories. As an insider, Saki was ideally poised to eviscerate the Edwardian middle class way of life, and his pitiless and magnetic sense of humour - teamed with an ability to wield that sharpest of writer's tools, the (very) short story - makes these some of the funniest and most quotable of tales. All of the running themes in Saki's work are here.

Dive into a gripping alternate history set in 1913, where the specter of invasion looms large over Britain at the height of its power. In When William Came, the enigmatic William refers to none other than Kaiser Bill, tapping into the eras deep-seated fears and anxieties. This novel joins the ranks of classic works like The Riddle of the Sands and The War of the Worlds, offering a fascinating exploration of jingoism and the politics of the time. Please note that the story reflects some mild anti-Semitism and jingoism characteristic of its period. (Summary by Andy Minter)

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.

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.
