THE PERFECT GIFT FOR BOOK LOVERS: Get all 7 of O. Henry’s classic Thanksgiving and Christmas stories, including "The Gift of the Magi," in one short story collection!

Complete with helpful notes about each short story's biographical and cultural contexts


“There are just as many real Christmas stories as ever, if we would only dig ’em up,” wrote William Sydney Porter. The first short story he published under the pen name O. Henry was a holiday tale (“Whistling Dick’s Christmas Stocking”), while his best-known work, “The Gift of the Magi,” has inspired countless Yuletide movies and television episodes. Library of America presents all seven of his seasonal offerings—including two about Thanksgiving, the “one day that is purely American”:

  • The Purple Dress 
  • Two Thanksgiving Day Gentlemen
  • Whistling Dick’s Christmas Stocking
  • A Chaparral Christmas Gift
  • Christmas by Injunction
  • The Gift of the Magi
  • Compliments of the Season

You’ll meet characters only O. Henry could have imagined: Maida, a shop clerk who scrimps and saves for a new dress to wear to the employee holiday party. Stuffy Pete, a homeless man who suffers through the generosity of back-to-back Thanksgiving dinners. The Frio Kid, a murderous outlaw who unexpectedly commits a single act of generosity. Whistling Dick, a tramp who stumbles upon a potentially lethal act of arson and robbery. Cherokee, a gold prospector who strikes it rich and decides to play Santa Claus. And Fuzzy, an alcoholic “soldier of misfortune,” who stumbles upon the lost rag doll belonging to a millionaire’s five-year-old daughter. 

Always witty, often outrageously funny, and filled with O. Henry’s famous plot twists, these stories take readers from New Mexico and Texas, through New Orleans, and to New York City to find the holiday spirit all across America.

Cute and comfortable!
Size: 6.5, Color: Chestnut
These are cute and surprisingly comfortable! My arches feel supported and the soles don’t feel as block-like as other platform style sandals! Things to note: The footbed liner is not made of suede and is a little slippery. It’s like a neoprene liner which was unexpected for an Ugg shoe. Also, I only intend to wear these sandals as slides (a la Birkenstocks) so the “adjustable” Velcro strap over the top part of the foot seems useless. It doesn’t snug the top down at all, functionally speaking it is only to wear around the back of the ankle. Maybe this matters to someone thinking they could tighten the top down a bit. The ankle strap is comfortable but could be a bit longer. Overall they are a cute option to the platform Birks that are very uncomfortable imo. Love the options to order half sizes. I’m usually a 6 in Ugg boots but ordered my regular shoe size 6.5 and they fit well. My heel would be at the very end of my sandal if I sized down. True to size. Keeping and will order in another color!

More comfortable than flats!
Size: 8.5, Color: Bay Fog
I love these sandals! They run true to size, and they’re sooo comfortable. I was worried about getting fakes, but these were the real deal. The color is lovely (light purple). The foot bed can get dirty, but I find them to wash up nicely (by hand, not machine). I have purchased two more colors since! So much better than flats!

Comfy dual-mode sandals
Cute, quite comfy to walk in and love the support of the heel strap! It is not as comfy if using in slipper mode because the straps don’t keep your foot tight enough. I am usually a 8.5 but it runs slightly small so I switched up to a 9.

Love them
Size: 5.5, Color: Red Pepper
I have gotten so many compliments on these shoes! They’re true to size and comfortable. Because of the material feet might sweat easier if hot but they dry quick. Quality is great and the color looks good, it’s more of a orange/red color. I got a 5.5 size
