E M Delafield & John Buchan 
Short Stories Set on Holiday [EPUB ebook] 

The expected joy that a few days in a different setting can, and most probably will, make is one of life’s most pleasant pleasures. Usually. But in this volume our classic authors including John Buchan, Edith Wharton, E M Delafield, M R James and a host of others really do seem to want to make some of those few days of indolent pleasure into something rather unpleasant.
