I've been enjoying Saki since the 70's so very pleased to find this collection on Audible. Unfortunately ruined for me by the narrator and the mispronunciation of Esme.

I can't really imagine anyone other than Stephen Fry reading these.

I love Saki's stories but couldn't listen to these. The narration is awful and renders them completely unlistenable. Luckily, as an Audible customer, this cost one credit - don't know how I'd feel if I'd paid over £30 for it. I'd advise all to avoid this product.
