Saki constructs his story, The Open Window, as a story-within-a-story. The larger narrative, or "frame" narrative, tells of Mr. Nuttel's arrival at the Sappleton home for the sole purpose of introducing himself. Within this larger narrative is the second story, which is told by Mrs. Sappleton's niece..... the story-within-a-story.
