Mark Twain has a very unique writing style because the setting used humor, irony and exaggeration. Whitewashing the fence is about when Tom has to paint the fence and tricks people into doing his work for him and tricking them into giving their stuff away The text said, "Tom had traded the next chance for Billy fisher for a kite."(Pg.15) The evidence is showing the reader that Tom is tricking people into giving their …show more content…

Henry has a very unique writing style, he uses a lot of irony. After 20 Years: two men agree to meet at a specific location after being apart for twenty years. " You've been arrested for ten minutes, 'Silky Bob'" ( page 228 ). This quotes helps prove my point, because the readers do not think that Jimmy Wells will turn in Silky Bob because Bob describes Jimmy as a very good man so readers think he will be loyal to his friend. It is a captivating story line with irony of Jimmy turning in his criminal friend. Another example O. Henry using irony is in the short story The Gift of The Magi. In this short story a wife and a husband try to get each other nice gifts for Christmas. " for lay The Combs- the combs that Della had seen in a shop window." " And now they were hers, but her hair was gone. " ( page 4 ). " Della held the watch chain in her hand and sat near the door when he always entered" ( page 3 ). The wife sold all her hair to buy her husband a watch chain, and her husband sold his watch to buy her a hair comb. The irony happens at the end of the story when the reader thinks that Della ( the wife ) is doing a sweet and thoughtful deed, until they learn that the husband sold his watch and so both of their gifts become useless to both of them. This maybe connects to the world because some people put others before
