A witty short story in which author Augustus "Mark" Mellowkent finds himself face to face with an overzealous book salesman.
Mark first appeared in The Toys of Peace and Other Papers (1919), the first posthumous publication of Saki (H. H. Munro) following his death during active duty in World War I.
Saki is the pen name of Hector Hugh Munro (1870 – 1916). He is best known for his witty short stories that satirize Edwardian society, as well as plays, novels, and a historical study. He was born in British Burma and died in France fighting in the Battle of the Ancre.
