Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Originating from CSA WORD - the fifth instalment in its famous 'Short Story' compilation series - fine vintage stories that slip down as easily as a 1787 Chateau Lafite but are considerably lighter on the pocket to indulge in.

This excellent value collection features twenty-two complete and unabridged stories from writers as diverse as Saki, P.G. Wodehouse, Jerome K. Jerome, Kate Chopin and Edward Lear. Readers include Derek Jacobi, StephenFry, Hugh Laurie, Martin Jarvis and Rupert Degas. Ladies and Gentlemen, please raise your glasses to this truly vintage collection...cin cin!
