Über dieses Buch

Clovis Sangrail is a young man with nothing to do and a talent for arranging other people's disasters — a hyena that joins a fox hunt, a tiger hunt got up for a lady's reputation, a cat given the power of speech and no discretion. Saki was raised by two tyrannical aunts and spent his career avenging himself on them in print; he was shot by a sniper on the Somme at forty-five, having refused a commission to stay in the ranks.
