Collected Short Stories makes good reading overall. Some stories are brilliant. One of my faves is the Bottom Pincher. KS is a dirty old man with a devil may care attitude and a wicked sense of humour to match.
KS on his enemies-I think I will have wax images of my pet hates and vent my spleen on them by sticking pins in their effigies. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest their armpits!
Ks on Indians and sex-Indians have sex more often in their brains and not where it should be....

Must read stories in it are by, in my opinion, by Kabir Bedi and Ruskin Bond. They stood out amongst others by their simplicity of language. Having said that, does not mean that the rest are any less powerful.
amazing collection of stories..very hilarious and entertaining..! Loved it..!
