With a new Introduction by Professor Cedric Watts, M.A., Ph.D. This
selection of a hundred of O. Henry's succinct tales displays the
range, humour and humanity of a perennially popular short-story
writer. Here Henry gives a richly colourful and exuberantly
entertaining panorama of social life, ranging from thieves to
tycoons, from the streets of New York to the prairies of Texas.
These stories are famed for their 'trick endings' or 'twists in the
tail': repeatedly the plot twirls adroitly, compounding ironies.
Indeed, O. Henry's cunning plots surpass those of the ingenious
rogues he creates. His style is genial, lively and witty,
displaying a virtuoso's command of language and allusion. This
great collection offers delights for the mind, imagination and
emotions.
