''Three weeks later the world was advised of the coming of a new breakfast food, heralded under the resounding name of ''Filboid Studge'''' H.H
Munro, better known by his pen name, Saki, wrote wickedly comic satires of upper-class Edwardian life. These seven short stories are macabre and extremely funny: they include a cat that is regrettably taught to speak, a vicious pet ferret worshipped as a god, a businessman triumphantly selling an unpalatable breakfast mush, and many dark twists and barbs. This book includes Filboid Studge, a Story of a Mouse That Helped, Todermory, Mrs. Packletide''s Tiger, Sredni Vashtar, The Music on the Hill, The Recessional and The Cobweb.
