"The Elk" by Saki is a short story that revolves around the character of Mrs. Thropplestance, a wealthy and domineering old woman known for her obstinacy and disdain for others. Living in the county of Woldshire, she is notorious for her harsh treatment of those around her, including her servants and tenants.

The narrative unfolds as Mrs. Thropplestance decides to host a grand dinner party, intending to impress her guests with a lavish display of wealth and power. However, her plans are thwarted when she becomes embroiled in a confrontation with a local poacher who has been hunting on her land. The poacher's defiance and the ensuing chaos lead to unexpected consequences, ultimately challenging Mrs. Thropplestance's authority.
