The Bodley Head Saki

Fifty-two pieces of Saki's delicious brevity, plus "The Unbearabl e Bassington" entire. Readers on whom the Saki spell has already fallen -- light as finger-touch when it comes -- and others for whom it is an awaited pleasure, will relish Mr Lambert's introduction not only for the justness of its estimate but also for its glimpses of other Saki writing - journalis m, correspondence, and perhaps unlikely entry into letters as an historian of the Russian empire.- -- "Sunday Times".
