Bookstore is yet to open this crisp grey morning so I must spend time at Alex's Cheesecake Store and read more from "the master of the surprise ending"

BkClubCare I think my favorite story is The Caliph, Cupid and the Clock 8y
Lola The Gift of the Magi is the first piece of literature I remember reading in grade school. O. Henry turned me into a reader 😍 8y
BkClubCare @Lola - YAY! I need to stop and take a photo with his sculpture one of these days... 8y
Nutmegnc I love the study/dessert carrols. The light is amazing. And the gluten free guava and coconut cupcake is to die for! Although your treat looks heavenly. I think The Gift of the Magi perfectly embodies the element of "poignancy "-which Atul Gawande claims is something that young people don't often understand. This story is good training for later life issues. @BkClubCare (edited) 8y
BkClubCare @Nutmegnc - ever the teacher; which is why you are so good. 8y

"A master of the surprise ending, the short story knew a rebirth with his fertile pen." The very first story was amazing!
Esther and Oscar assisting...
