The Collected Short Stories of Saki by Saki
5.0
If there is one book I want with me on that forsaken lost island, then it's this one.
I have read it cover to cover thrice already, but I find myself visiting the individual stories ever so often, they soothe my pain, bring me to laugh and feel like I have viewed something keenly fantastic that resonates so well with my sense of humour.
His satire, his attention to detail and disdain for the tenets of "good" society make him a personal favourite, he's part of the trifecta of Wilde and Wodehouse style of subversive humour.
