Saki (H.H.Munro) stands alongside Anton Chekov and O.Henry as a master of the short story. His extraordinary stories are a mixture of humorous satire, irony and the macabre, in which the stupidities and hypocrisy of conventional society are viciously pilloried. Among the short stories are the well-known classics, "Sredni Vastar" and "The Unrest Cure".
