Henry The Trimmed Lamp follows The Four Million and provides another series of stories that take place in New York City in the early years of the 20th century and are representative of the surprise endings that popularized O. Henry's work. They also capture his use of coincidence or chance to create humor in the story. O Henry wrote about ordinary people in everyday circumstances.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Trimmed Lamp: And Other Stories of the Four Million OF course there are two sides to the question. Let us look at the other. We often hear shop-girls spoken Of. No such persons exist. There are girls who work in shops. They make their living that way. But why turn their occupation into an adjective? Let us be fair. We do not refer to the girls who live on Fifth Avenue as marriage-girls. Lou and Nancy were chums. They came to the big city to find work because there was not enough to eat at their homes to go around. Nancy was nineteen; Lou was twenty. Both were pretty, active, country girls who had no ambition to go on the stage. The little cherub that sits up aloft guided them to a cheap and respectable boarding-house. Both found positions and became wage-earners. They remained chums. It is at the end of six months that I would beg you to step forward and be introduced to them. Meddlesome Reader: My Lady friends, Miss Nancy and Miss Lou. While you are shaking hands please take notice cautiously of their attire. Yes, cautiously; for they are as quick to resent a stare as a lady in a box at the horse show is. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: 1923. William Sydney Porter (O. Henry) was the most popular short story writer of his time. His stories typically revolved around two of his favorite themes, the situation of the impostor and fate as the one unavoidable reality of life. Another device he used was the surprise ending, usually coming about through coincidence. He was the founder of the humorous weekly The Rolling Stone. When the weekly failed, he joined the Houston Post as a reporter and columnist. He was convicted of embezzling money, although there's much debate over his actual guilt, and while in prison he started to write short stories. His first work, Whistling Dick's Christmas Stocking appeared in McClure's Magazine. After emerging from prison Porter changed his name to O. Henry. He then moved to New York and wrote a story a week for the New York World, also publishing in other magazines. His stories deal for the most part with ordinary people: clerks, policemen, waitresses and most are set in his contemporary present, the early years of the 20th century. In the title story, The Trimmed Lamp, he offers a sentimental and moralistic portrait of the after-hours lives of young New York working women.

Download or read book The Trimmed Lamp and Other Stories of the Four Million written by O. Henry and published by . This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O Henry is best noted for his wit, characterization and twist endings. O Henry wrote primarily about his own time the early 20th century. Most stories were set in New York and the characters were ordinary people. His brilliant writing style and his optimistic and often playful tone make O Henry's stories a delight to read. The Four Million is a collection of stories. The collection opens with the words of Ward McAllister; "assertion that there were only 'Four Hundred' people in New York City who were really worth noticing. But a wiser man has arisen--the census taker--and his larger estimate of human interest has been preferred in marking out the field of these little stories of the 'Four Million.'" For O Henry each person was of value and every man had a unique story worth telling.
