      Thirty stories. O. Henry is one of the most widely published of modern authors. His works-more than six hundred stories-have been translated into nearly every language. Although his first literary success took Latin America for its setting, he is best known for his tales about the people of New York City- "Baghdad-on-the-Subway" -stories that are inventive, ironic, and surprisingly contemporary. This collection of O. Henry's works contain 30 of his best-loved pieces, including the eternal Christmas classic "The Gift of the Magi."

Генри, любуемся необыкновенными волосами Деллы и восхищаемся бескорыстной любовью и самопожертвованием "двух глупых детей", которые и оказываются настоящими волхвами.
