The Skylight Room - O. Henry - Literary Roadhouse Ep 153

Discussion Notes: The Skylight Room

This week’s story: The Skylight Room by O. Henry

Next week’s story: The Second Bakery Attack by Haruki Murakami

Rated: Clean

Gerald, Anais and Andy discuss “The Skylight Room” by O. Henry and did not like it, but had a lot of fun and a lot of laughs in the process. This was Rammy’s departing gift, and the theme and lessons seem buried deep and twisted. The story’s main source of humor did not age well. The discussion is illustrative of how themes could be sowed.
