Cover of Saki: The Unbearable Bassington (ePUB)

The novel showcases Comus Bassington, a charming yet deeply flawed protagonist entangled in Edwardian society’s superficial pursuits and savage manners. As Comus navigates through a series of personal and social failures, his story unfolds into a poignant exploration of beauty, ambition, and exile. With its incisive humor and tragic undertones, this book is an exquisite dissection of human foibles and societal hypocrisy.
