欧·亨利(O. Henry)短篇小说合集

美国著名短篇小说家欧·亨利(O. Henry,1862年9月11日—1910年6月5日),本名威廉·西德尼·波特(William Sydney Porter),欧·亨利是其笔名,与法国短篇小说巨匠居伊·德·莫泊桑(Guy de Maupassant)和俄国短篇小说巨匠安东·契诃夫(Anton Chekhov)并称“世界三大短篇小说之王”。

欧·亨利的人生,虽出身医师家庭,但幼年家境贫寒,曾想当画家,后来曾经担任药剂生、牧人、厨师、照顾服务员、乐师、歌手、演员、记账士、地政局书记、记者、编辑、银行出纳员等,在妻子的鼓励下开始写作,而后因在银行供职时的账目问题而入狱,服刑期间由于经济困难,以“欧·亨利”为笔名发表了大量的短篇小说,情节大多出人意料,故引起广大欢迎。假释后,便成为专业作家。

欧·亨利是一位高产的作家,一生中留下了一部长篇小说和近三百篇的短篇小说。他的短篇小说构思精巧,风格独特,以表现美国中下层人民的生活、语言幽默、结局出人意料(即“欧·亨利式结尾”)而闻名于世,以其众多巧妙、幽默的作品而赢得了全世界的赞誉,成为美国文学独树一帜的极短篇大师,被誉为“美国现代短篇小说之父”和“美国生活的幽默百科全书”。
