In this delightful anthology, humour and horror, wit and tragedy, the natural and the supernatural come together in a series of short, crisp and thought- provoking stories that will engage and fascinate the reader. There is music that kills; a stuffed bird that flies; a rabbi tortured by hope; a debtor who remembers to pay his debts even after his death; and a man who dupes none other but himself.
Selected and compiled by Ruskin Bond, The Rupa Book of Snappy Surprises features classic short stories by Rudyard Kipling, Saki, Lord Halifax, among others, apart from Ruskin Bond himself.
