Listen to a sample Listen to a sample

A well-crafted piece of writing about schadenfreude - sheer pleasure, in this case, at seeing someone 'get his comeuppance' - with an element of slapstick. Lieutenant Golightly is a young officer in the British Army in India who prides himself on "looking like 'an Officer and a Gentleman'" and it is clear he puts a little too much emphasis on his appearance. Throughout the course of the story he faces a number of pitfalls, as a result of which his uniform is tarnished, with amusing results.
