O. Henry’s second collection of stories "The Four Million" gives us the possibility to immerse ourselves in these tales about love and sacrifices, struggles and appreciation. The plot twists will however make you doubt how the story will develop until you reach the very last page. William Sidney Porter (1862-1919), known simply as O. Henry, was a prolific American author of humorous literary pieces. His fame came exceptionally quickly and he became a bestselling author of short story collections, among the most famous being "Cabbages and Kings", "The Voice of the City", and "Strictly Business." As a result of the outstanding literature legacy that O. Henry left behind, there is an American annual award after his name, given to exceptional short stories.
