''The Gift of the Magi'' by O. Henry

From the list of suggested short stories I've decided to choose for my styllistic analysis the story ''The Gift of the Magi'', written by an American writer O. Henry.

I chose this short for a reason - the author's name is known to me, and  I like his writing style. I have  already heard about 'The Gift of the Magi'', but I did not have enough time to read it.

And I think, that it's just the right time to read it! :)

You can find ''The Gift of the Magi'' by  O.Henry right here: http://americanliterature.com/author/o-henry/short-story/the-gift-of-the-magi

 

''...But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. Of all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi...''

 

Lets get it started!

Hello!

Welcome to my blog connected with English stylistics.

It is not the first my blog at the www.blogger.com. I already have some experience in blogging. I believe that blogging is a good way to share your thoughts with others. Especially if there's nobody, the blog is just what we need! But this is not the whole usefulness of the blog! Through the blog we can share not only ideas, but also our experience, discuss various topics and eventually learn something new. And I'm very happy that I have such chance to communicate with my groupmates and share my thoughts.
