More about the book

Set in the fictional nation of Anchuria, the novel explores the turmoil of revolution, corruption, and greed through interconnected stories. An American businessman seizes the chaos following a coup, leading to a series of moral dilemmas and betrayals. The narrative critiques American imperialism and the exploitation of Latin America, coining the term "banana republic." O. Henry's work not only launched his career but also highlighted the complexities of human nature and societal flaws, making it a significant piece of American literature.
