The Collected Stories of Saki

The Collected Stories of Saki brings together the witty and incisive short fiction of Hector Hugh Munro, writing under the pen name Saki, renowned for his satirical portrayals of Edwardian high society. Spanning collections like Reginald, The Chronicles of Clovis, Beasts and Super-Beasts, and others, the volume features over a hundred tales blending sharp humor, irony, and macabre twists, often with mischievous children, cunning animals, or supernatural elements upending stuffy conventions and pompous adults. Saki’s mischievous tone revels in rebellion against authority, skewering hypocrisy, social pretensions, and the absurdities of the British upper class through surprise endings and gleeful comeuppances.
