1001 Classic Short Stories & Tales

In turn-of-the-century New York City, a young lady named Miss Leeson is trying to make it on her own checks into a boarding house and accepts the only room she can afford- a closet-sized upper room with one skylight, through which she looks wonderingly at a star that she names Billy Jackson. Work becomes scarce, and she becomes sick and weak of starvation. O'Henry's skill at describing the building, its occupants, and the plot makes this a classic short story. BEST O.HENRY STORIES.
