Sumérgete en el ingenio mordaz de Saki con 'Alpiste para codornices', una selección de cuentos que exploran la hipocresía y las contradicciones de la sociedad con un humor ácido y a menudo negro. Esta edición de Alianza Editorial, con la traducción de Arturo Agüero Herranz, presenta relatos que, bajo su apariencia liviana, ofrecen una profunda reflexión sobre la condición humana. Nacido en Birmania, Hector Hugh Munro, conocido como Saki, fue un observador singular de la alta sociedad inglesa, y sus cuentos son considerados piezas maestras de la literatura inglesa.
Hector Hugh Munro, popularly known by his pen name Saki and also frequently as H. H. Munro, was a British writer whose witty, mischievous and sometimes macabre stories satirise Edwardian society and culture. He is considered to be a master of the short story and is often compared to O. Henry and Dorothy Parker. Influenced by Oscar Wilde, Lewis Carroll and Rudyard Kipling, Munro himself influenced A. A. Milne, Noël Coward and P. G. Wodehouse.
