BONUS HINT: There are rather few classic, American, short story writers who famously employ twists. This story is one of the author's better known ones but not among his most famous.

To tell the truth I don't remember, but since almost all of this author's short stories take place in New York I will say New York.

The character is "Soapy" as characterized by Charles Laughton (one of my favorite actors) with a cameo by the stunningly beautiful Marilyn Monroe in her prime.

What is grief, if not love persevering?
