Clovis is a peer in Mrs. Packletide’s London social circle who encourages her exotic desires and attention-seeking behaviors. Although a minor character in “Mrs. Packletide’s Tiger,” Clovis is the titular character who stars in many of the short stories in Saki’s third collection, The Chronicles of Clovis (1911). Clovis’ witty and biting character is very similar to that of Reginald, another young man-about-town who features in Saki’s previous two short story collections.
