An hilarious collection of short stories written about animals by one of Britain's greatest satirists of the 20th Century, Saki, real name Hector Hugh Monroe. In this hilarious and occasionally macabre collection of Saki's off-beat and unusual short stories all featuring animals, the cutting edge of the satirist is never far away. Mice in the undeerwear; an ox in the drawing room; the dreadful indiscretions of a cat that learns to talk; the just downfall of Miss Packletide whose Achilles heel is snobbery, and the party guest who did or did not turn into a she-wolf are all grist to Saki's mill.
