Explanation:


The story, ''The summer of beautiful white horse'' is beautifully written by William Saroyan that depicts the virtues of honesty, trust, and owning up to and admitting one's mistakes in life.

In "The Summer of the Beautiful White Horse," the irony is that Mourad, a member of the Garoghlanian family, steals a white horse. This is ironic because the family is famous and renowned for its honesty. In fact, as Aram, the narrator of the story, tells the readers that honesty is their second best-known family quality, and it has been around for centuries, long before the family ever became poor, and I quote it:

"We had been famous for our honesty for something like eleven centuries, even when we had been the wealthiest family."

For Aram, it is shocking and brutal to believe that a family member would portray such dishonesty by stealing a horse. But knowing the poverty of his cousin gave him reasons for what Mourad did.

Moreover, Mourad's understanding of the horse as "honest" is ironic because his relationship with the horse is based on theft, an act of utmost dishonesty.
