Publisher's summary

Here are seven of H.H. Munro's (Saki's) finest short stories, including 'The Treasure Ship', 'Laura', 'The Lumber Room', 'The Quince Tree', 'The Open Window', 'Tobermory', and 'The Story Teller'. Witty, mischievous, and sometimes macabre, the stories satirise Edwardian society and culture.

Could not believe my ears

Yes Munro anytime, he is(was) brillant.

What other book might you compare Short Stories by Saki to and why?

would hesitate to compare him to anybody else

What didn’t you like about Emma Topping’s performance?

She was average and speaking to fast overall.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Anger and disappointment.
The presentation demonstrates disrespect for the Author and the listener.
No title no chapters or even a break when a new story starts. It is all one soup.

Any additional comments?

Amazon should use this presentation for "worst practice training" of its editors

Save your money

Which story?
I suppose it's a guessing game - unless you recognize the story.
The narrator doesn't introduce the stories and they're not in the chapter list.
(sorry new Saki readers)
