Four Million (Version 3)

O. Henry

Considered one of his finest works, The Four Million (1906) is a collection of short stories by American writer O. Henry (1862-1910). Despite exploring serious themes of poverty, hope and persecution, O. Henry’s dry, quick wit with a twist at the end make these stories a delight to read. (Summary by valroth)
