Reviews of Stories By H. H. Munro, or Saki - описание и краткое содержание, автор Zimmermann Daniel (EN), читать бесплатно онлайн на сайте электронной библиотеки Lib-King.Ru.

This e-book is an excellent introduction to the works of Saki. It contains a general introduction to Saki's works plus reviews of six interesting tales. Each review gives all the essentials of the plot of the tale plus appropriate comments. Some of Saki's ironic satire has been reproduced, but to fully appreciate it, you will have to read his work directly. The stories selected are my personal favorites, including "The Interlopers," "The Hounds of Fate," and "Dusk." The popular story entitled "The Open Window" is briefly treated in the introductory essay.
