Makes the Whole World Kin and other stories [Russian Edition]

Despite not the most cheerful conditions for creativity, the American William Sidney Porter entered the history of world literature as a master of short stories, which are distinguished by the invariable subtle humor and optimism. He formed as a writer in prison, where he went on charges of embezzlement. It was there that his well-known pseudonym, O. Henry, appeared. Perhaps it is the qualities he contrasted with the harsh reality that still make him a “kindred spirit” with people of different cultures and generations.
