A level 2 Oxford Bookworms Library graded reader. Retold for Learners of English by Diane Mowat.

A housewife, a tramp, a lawyer, a waitress, an actress – ordinary people living ordinary lives in New York at the beginning of the twentieth century. The city has changed greatly since that time, but its people are much the same. Some are rich, some are poor, some are happy, some are sad, some have found love, some are looking for love.

O. Henry's famous short stories – sensitive, funny, sympathetic – give us vivid pictures of the everyday lives of these New Yorkers.

    What makes one city different from another city? Is it the buildings, the weather, the people? It is the people who make a city, and to know a city, you must know its people. You must know what makes them laugh and cry, know the small details of their everyday lives.
  • Evgeniya Andolshikhas quoted6 years ago
    Avenue is not a famous place, but if you need a large cheap meal, then Bogle’s is the place for you.
