O Henry endings,
By MDM411 (San Antonio, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: More Twists (Paperback)
I purchased this book for Henri Duvernois' short story "Clothes Make the Man". This was a short story I read more than 30 years ago. I think about this story almost everyday, due to the steady decline of sartorial refinement in our society. When I see how the "casual-dress workplace" has declined from khaki pants and dress shirts to faded jeans, tee-shirts and tennis shoes, when I see women wearing Crocs to work, when I see the youth of America wearing baggy clothes, tee-shirts, and ballcaps on backwards, when I see our new president without his suit coat in the Oval Office, when I see a proliferation of sweat pants in our shopping malls and restaurants, I think of this story.O. Henry's "The Last Leaf" is another short story I read many years ago that is worth the price of purchase. This book is easy to read, and has simple exercises at the end of each story. A great book to have in your library especially for your children or grandchildren. |
