The Chronicles Of Clovis

af Saki
Bag om The Chronicles Of Clovis

""The Chronicles of Clovis"" is a delightful collection of short stories written by the renowned British author Saki (pen name H.H. Munro). With his signature wit and satire, Saki takes readers on a whimsical journey into Edwardian society, exploring its quirks, hypocrisies, and absurdities. The stories revolve around the mischievous and irreverent character of Clovis Sangrail, a young man who revels in creating chaos and exposing the hypocrisy of the upper classes. Through his cunning pranks and sharp observations, Clovis pokes fun at the pretentiousness and social conventions of his time. Each story in ""The Chronicles of Clovis"" is a gem of clever wordplay, unexpected twists, and biting humour. From Clovis' ingenious schemes to his encounters with eccentric characters, Saki's tales entertain and amuse, offering a satirical commentary on the Edwardian era. With his unique storytelling style and sharp insights into human nature, Saki captivates readers, inviting them into a world where wit reigns supreme and societal conventions are playfully dismantled.
