Mark Twain’s stories share a humorous style. His stories were sometimes based on his life and the experiences in it. Mark Twain would sometimes narrate his stories to make them more interesting for the reader. He would also pose as a listener in some of his stories. Twain seemed to be very critical of the government in his stories such as “Cannibalism in Cars” and “Jumping Frog of Calaveras County”. Therefore, Mark Twain’s style of writing uses a lot of humor, irony, and satire to teach lessons about people. In “McWilliams and the Burglar Alarm” Twain uses irony, humor, and satire to make the point. This story is about a wealthy family which has problems with their new burglar alarm. The irony found in this story was that the “tenants” were actually burglars.
