O. Henry (1862-1910) – the pseudonym of William Sydney Porter, an outstanding American novelist who became famous for brilliant humorous stories.

O. Henry is called a great comforter – in his works there is always one who is ready to help the desperate and perishable in order to provide an unexpected denouement with a realistic story. This book includes new translations of famous stories.
