Description

''The Unbearable Bassington'' is a satirical novel written by H.H. Munro, better known by his pen name ''Saki.'' First published in 1912, the book follows the misadventures of Comus Bassington, a charming and irreverent young man who navigates the upper-class society of Edwardian England. Through his witty and biting prose, Saki explores themes of social satire, class privilege, and the hypocrisy of conventional norms. The story unfolds as Comus rebels against his overbearing mother, Lady Bastable, and embraces a life of pleasure-seeking and nonconformity. As his escapades unfold, the novel offers a scathing critique of the shallow and absurd aspects of aristocratic society. ''The Unbearable Bassington'' showcases Saki's signature style of dark humour, clever wordplay, and incisive social commentary. It is a compelling read that exposes the foibles and follies of the upper classes while providing an entertaining and thought-provoking narrative.
