In Saki's world a despotic dog becomes his owner's master, a rural community is hoodwinked by a pair of friends and Eve stubbornly refuses to eat the forbidden fruit. Although unquestionably of its time, each story ridicules the follies of the author's society - yet they are follies which are still all too clearly recognisable today.
