Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Saki (1870-1916) pseudonym of Hector Hugh Munro Scottish-born writer whose stories satirize the Edwardian social scene, often in a macabre and cruel way. Munro's columns and short stories were published under the pen name 'Saki', who was the cupbearer in The Rubayat of Omar Khayyam , an ancient Persian poem. Saki's stories were full of witty sayings - such as "The cook was a good cook, as cooks go; and as cooks go she went." Sometimes they also included coded references to homosexuality. "A little inaccuracy sometimes saves tons of explanations." (from The Square Egg Saki was born Hector Hugh Munro in Akyab, Burma (now Myanmar), the son of Charles Augustus Munro, an inspector-general in the Burma police. Munro's mother, the former Mary Frances Mercer, died in 1872 - she was killed by a runaway cow in an English country lane. Munro was brought up in England with his brother and sister by aunts who frequently used the birch and whip. He was educated at Pencarwick School in Exmouth and Bedford Grammar School. From 1887 he traveled with his family in France, Germany and Switzerland. In 1891 his father settled in Devon, where he worked as a teacher. In 1893 Munro joined the Burma police. Three years later he was back in England and started his career as a journalist, writing for the Westminster Gazette In 1900 Munro's first book, THE RISE OF THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE, appeared. It is a historical study modelled upon Gibbon's famous

Extractions: Commentary by Karen Bernardo Hector Hugh Munro more commonly known as Saki was born in Akyab, Burma. This was during the period when Burma, like India proper, was occupied by the British, and thus Munro was considered a British citizen despite the location of his birth. Munros father was an officer in the Burma police. However, apparently feeling that England was a better place to raise children than Burma, Munros father left his three children in the care of his mother and two sisters (the childrens grandmother and aunts) back in Devon, England. Hector Munro and his two siblings were all somewhat sickly children, and out of concern for their health they were tutored at home for much of their childhoods. This focus on home may have contributed to a similar concentration in the drawing-room situations Munro would later describe in his stories. When Hector had completed his schooling, he went to Burma where his father had arranged for him to join the military police. The climate did not agree with him, and after only a year at his new post, he fell ill with a severe case of malaria and had to return home. Back in England he began writing political satires, which were so entertaining that he had no trouble getting them published in the Westminster Gazette . He chose to publish his fiction (as opposed to his journalistic and non-fiction efforts) under the name of Saki, a pseudonym which was taken from the cup-bearer in

Extractions: Saki Pseudonym des englischen Schriftstellers und Journalisten Hector Hugh Munro, der für seine spitzen, oftmals zynischen Bemerkungen und Aphorismen bekannt war. In den letzten Jahren des neunzehnten Jahrhunderts begann er unter dem Namen Saki für die "Westminster Gazette" zu schreiben. Aufsehen erregte er 1914 mit dem Roman "When William Came", einem in der Zukunft spielenden Kriegsroman, der eine deutsche Invasion und die Besetzung Londons schildert. Im Bewußtsein der Öffentlichkeit dürften aber heute nur noch seine fantastischen, oftmals ironisch gefärbten Kurzgeschichten präsent sein. (c) by Bernd Rothe, 1998 - 2004
