Book excerpt: William Sydney Porter (1862–1910), known by his pen name O. Henry, was an American writer. O. Henry's short stories are known for their wit, wordplay, warm characterization, and surprise endings. Most of O. Henry's stories are set in his own time, the early 20th century. Many take place in New York City and deal for the most part with ordinary people: clerks, policemen, waitresses, etc. O. Henry's work is wide-ranging, and his characters can be found roaming the cattle-lands of Texas, exploring the art of the con-man, or investigating the tensions of class and wealth in turn-of-the-century New York. O. Henry had an inimitable hand for isolating some element of society and describing it with an incredible economy and grace of language. Some of his best and least-known work is contained in Cabbages and Kings, a series of stories each of which explores some individual aspect of life in a paralytically sleepy Central American town, while advancing some aspect of the larger plot and relating back one to another.

Download or read book The Complete Short Stories written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 2870 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nathaniel Hawthorne's 'The Complete Short Stories' is a collection of his finest works, showcasing his mastery of the short story format. Each story is intricately woven with themes of sin, guilt, and the complexities of human nature, reflecting the author's profound insight into the human condition. Hawthorne's writing style is characterized by his rich use of symbolism and allegory, adding layers of meaning to each narrative. Set against the backdrop of puritanical New England, his stories explore the dark corners of the human psyche, making them both thought-provoking and timeless. This collection serves as a testament to Hawthorne's enduring influence on American literature. Nathaniel Hawthorne's own life experiences, including his Puritan heritage and his fascination with the supernatural, greatly influenced his writing. His exploration of moral dilemmas and psychological conflicts can be traced back to his own struggles with guilt and sin. These personal experiences lend an authenticity and depth to his stories, making them resonate with readers on a profound level. I highly recommend 'The Complete Short Stories' to readers who appreciate thought-provoking literature that delves into the complexities of human nature. Hawthorne's timeless tales continue to captivate audiences with their profound themes and masterful storytelling.

Download or read book Legends of New England written by John Greenleaf Whittier and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legends of New-England was John Greenleaf Whittier's first book, published in 1831. It includes Whittier's retelling of eighteen legends that were current in his time, some in prose and some in poetry. It is of interest because it is Whittier's earliest work, because it lets us look at early American folk legends, and because the stories themselves are fascinating. It has some of the earliest tales of the supernatural in American literature, which compare with Poe's and Hawthorne's stories. Given Whittier's importance as an American writer, it is surprising that this book has long been out of print. We are proud to make it available to the public once again. John Greenleaf Whittier was one of the most beloved American poets. Every school child learned his poems, and lines such as "Blessings on thee, little man, . Barefoot boy, with cheek of tan" and "'Shoot, if you must, this old gray head, . But spare your country's flag, ' she said." were widely quoted. Whittier was a Quaker and became an active abolitionist when he was in his twenties. He was the editor of two abolitionist newspapers, The Pennsylvania Freeman and The National Era, and was a founding member of the Liberty Party. He wrote two volumes of anti-slavery poetry. In 1866, just after slavery was abolished, Whittier published the book-length poem Snow-Bound, the best seller that established his reputation as a poet.
