The famous American writer O. Henry (William Sidney Porter) is the author of popular short stories, a master of original plot twists, colorful dialogues, and stunning denouements. The creative legacy of the writer consists of more than six hundred short stories, which are a kind of humorous encyclopedia of American life in the early twentieth century. However, the sketches of O. Henry's sketches as best as possible respond to what we observe in modern life. Extraordinarily entertaining and witty, O. Henry's stories are still living classics... The present volume includes the famous story "Kings and Cabbages", consisting of adventurous and humorous short stories, the action of which takes place in Latin America, as well as two author's collections in full: "The Burning Lamp" and "Roads of Destiny." Many of the stories are presented in new translations. The edition is accompanied by rare illustrations by the remarkable Soviet artist Grigory Filippovsky (1909-1987), as well as drawings from American editions of the first half of the 20th century.
