I have never read Saki before & appreciate this engaging introduction. The lively characterization of the girl undermines stereotypical childhood constructs in such an entertaining manner. I love how she controls her own narrative literally & figuratively through her imaginative power!
I loved this - it reminded me of how much I used to love Saki (I would re-read my copy of his complete short stories at least once a year).
Thank you for reading and commenting, Louise :) I shall be posting more of his work in future library posts!
I absolutely love Saki. I have read it before but not for some time, so thank you very much for brightening my day!!
You're very welcome! And I'm so glad that I did :)
