O. Henry Knihy
William Sydney Porter, známejší pod pseudonymom O. Henry, bol majstrom prekvapivých zápletiek, pričom inšpiráciu pre svoje postavy často čerpal zo svojho búrlivého života. Jeho diela odrážajú hlasy a jazyk svojej doby a často sa zameriavajú na postavy z okraja spoločnosti. Autorov osobitý štýl spočíva v nečakaných zvratoch a dojemných pohľadoch na ľudskú povahu. Prostredníctvom svojich poviedok skúmal iróniu života a jeho nečakané obraty, čím si získal srdcia čitateľov po celom svete.

...It's what's inside of us that makes us turn out the way we do"-a phrase that is embedded in the mouth of one of the heroes of the story, became the leitmotif of the most famous work of O. Henry (1862-1910) The Roads We Take. Conciseness of presentation, subtle humor, unusual plot and unpredictable outcome are the hallmarks of his short prose.
