Abstract: These five famous O'Henry stories deal with the lives of ordinary people in a constantly changing New York City. Romance and humour abound in the lives of 'ordinary' folk. O. Henry has created characters that reveal in one way or another a true sense of dignity as they face their personal dramas. Love, forgiveness and tolerance flow through the heart of these stories and in the end there is always to be found poetic justice in the world. What has come to be known by readers worldwide as the 'feel good' factor. O. Henry's original style and irresistible humour together with his sympathetic portraits of the lost and the loved make him a joy to read.. (hoepli.it)
