- EXAMPLES OF IRONY IN LITERATURE
- "THE MONKEY'S PAW"
- "THE GIFT OF THE MAGI"
- THE HANDMAID'S TALE
- "THE LOTTERY"
- The Monkey's Paw by W. W. Jacobs is a classic example of using irony as a crucial literary device. Each of the wishes made by the character's possessing the monkey's paw turn out to have unexpected, tragic outcomes in the form of a curse rather than the expected wish.
- In O. Henry's "The Gift of the Magi", the main characters are determined to find each other the perfect gift for Chrstimas, even if it means making a great sacrifice. Their sacrifices negate the use of their gifts providing a classic example of irony.
- The dystopian setting in The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood is an example of irony as it is supposed to be a utopian society that is perfect. In reality the regime uses religion to oppress its people and subjugate women.
- "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson is filled with situational irony as the premise is based on the idea of winning a prize or something of value in "the lottery". Then, in an ironic twist, the character receives something far more sinister.
