The Best of Saki

Knowing Saki's upbringing and education, I wonder how much of his humor and critique stem from personal experience versus societal observation.

His wit cuts deep, but sometimes I felt a pang of discomfort at how sharply he exposes human folly. Is that the point or just my reaction?

There are so many memorable tales, but I’d love to hear which one resonated most and what it revealed about Edwardian society for others.
