I'm currently reading the complete works of Saki (1870-1916). I prefer him to O. Henry.

Now they're saying he was "gay." I didn't know that till recently. I just like his stories. At least he didn't push it.

Well, you have to admit that Clovis is a bit, shall we say, ethereal. I really like Saki, and read a few stories from time to time on the Kindle when I’m in the mood. Another Brit with a very nasty sense of humor was Evelyn Waugh. John Collier also wrote some really good short stories.
