‘The Marry Month of May’ was originally published in 1910. The narrative focuses on a rich, elderly widower called Mr. Coulson. Come May, he becomes enamoured with his widowed housekeeper Mrs. Widdup, but Mr. Coulson’s daughter is not at all pleased with the budding romance and plots to bring it to an abrupt halt. Will her plans to break up the spring romance work?This elaborate and witty short story muses on the themes of love, class and the impact of the environment on one’s emotions. American short story master O. Henry is best known for his pithy, witty scores and surprise endings. In doing so he made commonplace experiences extraordinary and memorable. His work has been immortalised in the popular 1952 film ‘O. Henry’s Full House’ starring Fred Allen, Anne Baxter, Marilyn Monroe and Jeanne Crain. –
