This session she will be including some works by O.Henry (William
Sydney Porter) was an American short story writer. O. Henry's short stories are
known for their wit, wordplay, warm characterization, and surprise endings.
O. Henry's stories frequently have surprise endings. In his
day, he was called the American answer to Guy de Maupassant. While both authors
wrote plot twist endings, O. Henry stories were considerably more playful, and
are also known for witty narration.
Most of O. Henry's stories are set in his own time, the early
20th century. Many take place in New
York City and for the most part feature ordinary
people: clerks, policemen, waitresses, etc.
