Review # 1 was written on 2020-05-30 00:00:00 Steve Peaker This is not necessarily a bad collection of short stories but Saki's later works (Beasts and Super-beasts) are better when compared to this collection. Here are the stories I would recommend from this book: Reginald's Christmas Revel, The Sex that doesn't Shop, The Blood Feud of Toad-Water, Gabriel-Ernest, The Strategist, The Baker's Dozen. Also, I'd say Reginald in Russia in certainly more enjoyable and longer than Reginald. In fact, you can read the former first and then read Reginald because these are all standalone stories. Either way, Saki's short stories are a delight for the soul and you'll be through these in a matter of days.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-02-12 00:00:00 Kiko Paris I am referring to the 3 page short story. I love, love, love Saki. This is the worst story by him that I can remember reading. This is the only short story by him that I can remember not liking at all. As a matter of fact, I really didn't understand the story at all and I didn't see the point of it.
