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 ...

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.

A train seems a very reliable mode to bring out the best in authors and sometimes the worst in their fictional characters. In this volume our narratives are usually set inside the carriage compartment where they are really up close and personal with each other. All our authors need to do is to light the touchpaper and stand well back.

Master storyteller H.H. Munro—better known by the pen name "Saki"—is famous for his witty, mischievous, and macabre stories of suspense. Saki specialized in impudent practical jokes, devilish trickery, and incredible yarns, and his writing became popular in the early 1900s for its witty and satirical look at the pretensions and ignorance of bourgeois English society.

Dive into the whimsical world of Saki with this enchanting collection of short stories featuring the young Clovis Sangrail, a character reminiscent of the beloved Reginald. Following the acclaimed “Reginald” and “Reginald in Russia,” this third installment offers a delightful array of tales, where familiar and new characters intertwine in clever and humorous escapades. Join Clovis as he navigates the absurdities of life with wit and charm. (Summary by Graham Redman)

BC's life was a fraud from the beginning. The worst part was her complete ignorance and innocence. Abducted, abused, and exposed to incredibly crude experiences and shocking pleasures, she was forced to grow up at a rapid pace. The people she loved, hated, and trusted were constantly lying to her. Insecurity led her to trust two dangerous characters, and to maintain their loyalty, she was forced to compromise her own morals. Would it be enough to survive? At what cost?

Our ‘fight of flight’ response is something hardwired into the primitive part of our brain. Our need to survive, to outlive whatever danger poses, that immediate threat to our lives is little short of a marvel. Everything else is abandoned in order to survive. Whilst in modern times that ability has been somewhat modified and ‘reasoned’ away to an extent, in past years it’s what usually kept you alive. In this volume people struggle valiantly to survive and to exist no matter the extent of the threat they face.

The inevitable is understood by each and every one of us who faces the final calling. So too are the effects on those left behind. The memories are there but the empty space, the void can never be refilled. It remains a dark, unreliable pit of loneliness. The sadness and often depression, the lack of will to continue may swamp us all. Unquenchable, undeniable. But loss can, after mourning, give the opportunity to reappraise the lost and how we can each move forward. In the literary world an accessible balance can be given.
