The Chronicles of Clovis


Read by LibriVox Volunteers

(4.8 stars; 3 reviews)

This is the third collection of short stories by Saki, following on from “Reginald” and “Reginald in Russia”. Although some of the stories have characters that do not appear elsewhere in the collection, many of them are loosely centred round the young Clovis Sangrail (effectively a reincarnation of Reginald). (Summary by Graham Redman). (6 hr 9 min)
