Book Reviews of The Best Short Stories of O. Henry (Modern Library)
Book Review: life as it should be
Summary: 5 Stars
There is something special about O'Henry, his language, his humour, and best of all his romance for life. These selected stories convey a harmony that one should strive to reach in ones own lifetime. Through O'henry's characters and the mastery of language one sees common individuals feeling, for split second moments, the romantic sarcasm, and beauty, of social and individual life which O'henry allows one to experience. This book I read over and over again, it never leaves my desk, and I never forget its lessons and perfection.
