The Unbearable Bassington 12+

📘 Hector Hugh Munro (1870-1916) used the pseudonym Saki. His macabre stories were known for their satire of Edwardian society. Comus Bassington is a cynical upper class young man. His mother keeps trying to arrange things for Comus; a job as a secretary or an advantageous marriage, but Comus spoils her plans by his selfish ways or by being unwilling to be guided by someone wiser.
