Tobermorey - a cat learns human speech, and the humans are regretful.
Mrs. Packletide's Tiger - a high-society woman one-ups her nemesis, but not her hired help.
The Unrest-Cure - a prank about murdering Jews. Maybe this was in better taste pre-Holocaust, but I hope not.
Srendi Vashtar - magical realism? A polecat-ferret is not a wolverine.
The She-Wolf* - pranking settles an account with irrationalism. I actually liked this one.
Laura - an incurable prankster won't leave off, whatever the circumstances.
The Open Window - might have worked better if I hadn't learned what to anticipate from this author.
The Schwartz-Metterklume Method - a woman plays a prank when she's mistaken for a governess.
The Blind Spot* - a more impressive story about new evidence in a murder case.
A Touch of Realism - another tiresome prank that targets Jews.
The Stalled Ox* - more innocently fun, an artist capitalizes on an invading ox.
The Story-Teller - possibly expressing Saki's opinion about stories, assuming his audience is children.
The Lumber-Room - Saki torments the fictional version of an aunt from his childhood.
The Toys of Peace - is it parents or children who conflate peace with boredom?
The Wolves of Cernogratz* - would make an excellent closing chapter for something more fully developed.
The Interlopers - two men realize the futility of their quarrel over a parcel of land.
Excepting Mrs. Pentherby - presents a thesis that women only bicker and quarrel, and thus must be controlled.
The Mappined Life - a more direct takedown of snobbish society, no pranks required.
Shock Tactics* - consequences for a mother who reads all of her son's correspondence.
The Sheep - if you're clumsy or not man enough, you might as well just die, apparently.
The Cupboard of the Yesterdays - absurdly suggesting the worst part of war is the subsequent peace. ( )
