Experience the razor-sharp wit and sardonic brilliance of Saki (H. H. Munro), one of the greatest masters of the short story form. The Complete Novels and Short Stories of Saki gathers all of his fiction—novels, story collections, and uncollected pieces—into one definitive volume that showcases his unmatched ability to blend elegance, satire, and mischief. This comprehensive edition includes Saki's most iconic works: Reginald, Reginald in Russia, The Chronicles of Clovis, Beasts and Super-Beasts, The Toys of Peace, The Square Egg, and his celebrated novel The Unbearable Bassington. Also featured is When William Came, a speculative novel that reveals Saki's political insight and biting imagination. Saki's stories are renowned for their polished prose, ironic twists, and wicked sense of humor. He skewers the pretensions of Edwardian society, exposes the absurdity of social convention, and delights in sudden reversals that leave lasting impressions. His characters—eccentric, unpredictable, and often deliciously ruthless—move through drawing rooms, estates, and city streets in stories that are as clever today as they were a century ago. This beautifully formatted edition is ideal for lovers of British satire, fans of Oscar Wilde and P. G. Wodehouse, and readers who appreciate literature with sharp edges and refined style. Add The Complete Novels and Short Stories of Saki to your library and enjoy the wit, elegance, and playful cruelty of one of the finest storytellers in English literature.
