O. Henry is a recognized master of the short story. His stories perfectly convey the flavor of American life at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. Subtle humor, bright characters, humanity and unexpected plot twists captivate readers. Mastery in depicting details and ingenuity in finding paradoxical situations in which the heroes of the stories fall have made O. Henry a favorite writer of many generations. O. Gary acquired vital material for his stories by changing many professions (pharmacist, cowboy, salesman, etc.), even becoming a cashier at the First National Bank, while simultaneously working as a journalist.
