Extractions: Munro, Hector Hugh Saki, pseudonym of HECTOR HUGH MUNRO , British writer, born in Burma (now known as Myanmar), and educated in England. In 1894 he joined the editorial staff of the London newspaper Westminster Gazette for which he wrote a series of lightly satirical political sketches reminiscent of the writings of the English author Lewis Carroll. The highly popular articles were collected as The Westminster Alice (1902). He enlisted in the British army at the outbreak of World War I and was killed in action in France. Saki is best known as a writer of short stories, many of which have fantastic settings and characters. They are distinguished by an urbane wit and delicate, often biting irony. A collected edition, the Short Stories of Saki, was posthumously published in 1930. Among his other published works are the novels The Unbearable Bassington (1912) and When William Came (1913).

Extractions: 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!)
