New York Stories Of O. Henry

With East Side tenements, Wall Street offices, and Fifth Avenue as their backdrops, these colourful tales by a master storyteller recount the dreams and passions of New Yorkers at the turn of the 20th century. Thirty-three of O. Henry's best stories - including "The Gift of the Magi," "The Cop and the Anthem," and "The Furnished Room" - abound in wit, irony, and the author's trademark surprise endings.
