O. Henry
Whirligigs
Paperback
(Forgotten Books Oct. 15, 2017)
Excerpt from WhirligigsA favourite dodge to get your story read by the public is to assert that it is true, and then add that Truth is stranger than Fiction. I do not know if the yarn I am anxious for you to read is true; but the Spanish purser of the fruit steamer El Carrero swore to me by the shrine of Santa Guadalupe that he had the facts from the U. S. Vice-consul at La Paz a person who could not possibly have been cognizant of half of them.As for the adage quoted above, I take pleasure in pune turing it by affirming that I read in a purely fictional story the other day the line 'be it so,' said the police man. Nothing so strange has yet cropped out in Truth.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
