Satirical Short Stories

Satire. That form of wit that ridicules all those shortcomings and flaws in individuals, society and its institutions in an effort to shame and mock them into a change of behaviour. And words in the hands of such talents as Oscar Wilde, Mark Twain, Jerome K Jerome and very many others are the mightiest weapons of such persuasion. 01 - Satirical Short Stories - An Introduction 02 - Lord Arthur Savile's Crime - Part 1 by Oscar Wilde 03 - Lord Arthur Savile's Crime - Part 2 by Oscar Wilde 04 - The Nose by Nikolai Gogol 05 - Eve's Diary by Mark Twain 06 - Bobok by Fyodor Dostoyevsky 07 - The Rocking Horse Winner by D H Lawrence 08 - The Death of a Government Clerk by Anton Chekhov 09 - The Lake Gun by James Fenimore Cooper 10 - The Tale of the Stairs by Hristo Smirenski 11 - Where Was Wych Street by Stacy Aumonier 12 - Holiday Group by E M Delafield 13 - The Conquest of the Earth by the Moon by Washington Irving 14 - Toba Tek Singh by Sadat Hasan Manto 15 - The Inconsiderate Waiter by J M Barrie 16 - The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde 17 - The Wedding Knell by Nathaniel Hawthorne 18 - Three Men In A Boat - Part 1 by Jerome K Jerome 19 -Three Men In A Boat - Part 2 by Jerome K Jerome 20 - Three Men In A Boat - Part 3 by Jerome K Jerome 21 - Three Men In A Boat - Part 4 by Jerome K Jerome
