O. Henry
O. Henry, born William Sydney Porter (1862-1910), was a prolific American short story writer renowned for his witty narratives and twist endings. Born in Greensboro, North Carolina, he moved to Texas, where he worked as a bank teller before facing legal troubles that led to his imprisonment. It was during this time that he began writing stories under the pen name O. Henry. His most famous works, including “The Gift of the Magi” and “The Ransom of Red Chief,” showcase his unique ability to blend humor and pathos while exploring themes of love, sacrifice, and the everyday lives of ordinary people. O. Henry’s distinctive style and engaging storytelling earned him widespread acclaim, and he remains a beloved figure in American literature.

O. Henry’s classic tale of the wisest gifts of Christmas now available in a refined digital layout.
In a shabby New York flat, Della sobs as she counts the few coins she has saved to buy a Christmas present for her husband, Jim. A gift worthy of her devotion will require a great sacrifice: selling her long, beautiful hair. Jim, meanwhile, has made a sacrifice for Della that is no less difficult. As they exchange gifts on Christmas Eve, the discovery of what each has done fills them with despair, until they realize that the true gifts of Christmas can be found more readily in their humble apartment than in any fine store. O. Henry paints a masterly portrait of unfaltering love, a haven from the harsh world outside.
