Download or read book The Toys of Peace and Other Papers written by Hector Hugh Munro and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This early work by H. H. Munro was originally published in 1919 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The Toys of Peace and Other Papers' is a collection of short stories, including 'Tea', 'Louise', 'The Penance', and many more. Hector Hugh Munro was born in Akyab, Burma in 1870. He was raised by aunts in North Devon, England, before returning to Burma in his early twenties to join the Colonial Burmese Military Police. Later, Munro returned once more to England, where he embarked on his career as a journalist, becoming well-known for his satirical 'Alice in Westminster' political sketches, which appeared in the Westminster Gazette. Arguably better-remembered by his pen name, 'Saki', Munro is now considered a master of the short story, with tales such as 'The Open Window' regarded as examples of the form at its finest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saki's 'The Complete Works of Saki (Illustrated)' is a collection of satirical and witty short stories that encapsulate the world of Edwardian England. Known for his dark humor and clever wordplay, Saki's stories often poke fun at the pretensions and absurdities of the upper class. Each tale is rich in irony and sarcasm, making for a humorous yet thought-provoking read. The illustrations included in this edition enhance the whimsical and fantastical elements of Saki's writing. These stories provide a glimpse into the social dynamics and values of the time, making them a valuable source for understanding the cultural context of the period. Saki, the pen name of Hector Hugh Munro, was a British writer known for his unique blend of humor and social commentary. With a background in journalism and firsthand experience of the social elite, Saki's observations of Edwardian society are both incisive and entertaining. His tragic death during World War I cut short a promising literary career, but his legacy lives on in the timeless wit of his stories. I highly recommend 'The Complete Works of Saki (Illustrated)' to readers who appreciate sharp wit, clever storytelling, and an exploration of the quirks of human nature. Saki's satirical tales will delight and challenge anyone looking for a witty and engaging read.

Book excerpt: The complete works of one of England's greatest Edwardian writers Saki is perhaps the most graceful spokesman for England's 'Golden Afternoon' - the slow and peaceful years before the First World War. Although, like so many of his generation, he died tragically young, in action on the Western Front, his reputation as a writer continued to grow long after his death. His work is humorous, satiric, supernatural, and macabre, highly individual, full of eccentric wit and unconventional situations. With his great gift as a social satirist of his contemporary upper-class Edwardian world, Saki is one of the few undisputed English masters of the short story and one of the great writers of a bygone era. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
