December 18 ~  A Little Inaccuracy Best of Saki: H.H. Munro "A l i t t l e inaccuracy s o m e t i m e s saves t o n s of explanations." ~ Saki, The Square Egg Master of the short story, Hector Hugh Munro (1870-1916), was born on this day in Akyab, Burma (now Myamar). The youngest of three, he was raised in England by two maiden aunts. A frail and only child, he later characterized his upbringing in Sredni Vashtar , "Without his imagination, which was rampant under the spur of loneliness, he would have succumbed long ago." He took his pen name, Saki from the character who served wine to the gods in the poem Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam "I always say beauty is only sin deep," he once said. The mild-mannered Englishman became a popular journalist and political satirist for the Morning Post Westminster Gazette , and others before concentrating on writing short stories. Often compared to O. Henry , Saki created stories with razor-sharp wit. His memorable surprise endings could be funny, super-natural, or frightening. "In baiting a mouse trap with cheese," he said, "always leave room for the mouse." His first novel

Munro) "Minha tia já irá descer, Sr. Nuttel", disse uma jovem dama, de cerca de quinze anos, muito segura de si; "neste meio tempo, o senhor terá que fazer o possível para me suportar". Framton Nuttel esforçava-se em achar algo para falar que pudesse lisonjear tanto a sobrinha que lhe fazia sala quanto a tia que estava por chegar. Internamente, ele se perguntava se essa série de visitas formais a pessoas totalmente desconhecidas poderiam ser de alguma forma úteis para a cura de seu problema de nervos. "Eu sei o que vai acontecer", havia dito sua irmã quando ele se preparava para partir para o campo; "você se enfurnará tão logo chegue e não falará com ninguém, e seu estado de nervos ficará pior do que nunca, devido à depressão. Por precaução, eu vou lhe entregar cartas de recomendação para todas as pessoas que eu conheci lá. Algumas, pelo que eu me recordo, eram bastante simpáticas." Framton perguntava-se se a Sra. Sappleton, a dama a quem iria entregar uma das tais cartas de recomendação, era uma das pessoas simpáticas.

Saki (1870-1916) is the pen name of Hector Hugh Munro. In a series of short stories, he created the characters Reginald and Clovis, two young men who happily take to task the conventional adult world. His collections of short stories include Reginald, The Chronicles of Clovis, Beasts and Super Beasts, and The Square Egg . Some of Saki's short stories, such as "Sredni Vashtar" and "The Muse on the Hill," are rather somber. He also wrote two novels, three plays, and one history. At the age of forty-four, Saki volunteered for active duty in World War I and was killed in action. Nearly all of his work is included in The Complete Works of Saki , published in 1976.

55. Saki A little inaccuracy sometimes saves tons of explanation. . Sakiwas the pseudonym of writer Hector Hugh Munro (18701916). Born http://wondersmith.com/scifi/saki.htm

Saki Biographical notes by Blake Wilfong "A little inaccuracy sometimes saves tons of explanation." Saki was the pseudonym of writer Hector Hugh Munro (1870-1916). Born in Burma, but raised and educated in England, he began his writing career because poor health precluded more strenuous occupations. He borrowed the nom de plume "Saki" from a character in The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Though he was primarily a journalist, Saki is remembered today for his fiction. Most of his tales were acerbic satires on the stuffy English upper class, but several contained elements of the fantastic: werewolves, ghosts, witches, etc. The novel When William Came (1913) is borderline SF because it correctly predicted World War I and English reactions to it. Of his more than 100 short stories, two qualify as genuine science fiction. Despite his age, cynicism, and marginal health, Saki enlisted in the British army during World War I. Though offered commissions, he refused, believing he should learn to be a soldier before commanding them. He was killed by a sniper's bullet during the Battle of the Somme. (If you know where I can obtain a public domain or royalty free image of Saki, please let me know. Thanks!)

French Doors These doors lead east to the Garden For some odd reason they always bring to mind an amusing, if morbid short story I read as a child... The Open Window Hector Hugh Munro (1870-1916) 'My aunt will be down presently, Mr. Nuttel,' said a very self-possessed young lady of fifteen; 'in the meantime you must try and put up with me.' Framton Nuttel tried to say a few words which should flatter both the niece of the moment and the aunt that was to come. Privately he doubted more than ever whether these formal visits on a number of total strangers would do much towards helping the nerve cure which he was to undergo. ’I know how it will be,' his sister had said when he was preparing to leave for the country; 'you will bury yourself down there and not speak to anybody, and your nerves will be worse than ever from moping. I shall just give you letters of intro­duction to all the people I know there. Some of them, as far as I can remember, were quite nice.' Framton wondered whether Mrs. Sappleton, the lady to whom he was presenting one of the letters of introduction, was one of the nice people. 'Do you know many of the people round here?' asked the niece, when she thought that they had been silent long enough.
