E-kniha The Two Women

First published in 1910, 'The Two Women' is a collection of two short stories from revered American author William Sidney Porter, better known by his pseudonym 'O. Henry'. The two stories include 'Fog in Santone' and 'A Medley of Moods'. Set in San Antonio, 'Fog in Santone' explores how the city has become a haven for tuberculosis patients and follows the experiences of a prostitute as one of the central characters. The second story draws on some of O. Henry's own life experiences and follows the tale of a man in New Orleans accused of embezzlement. With his usual warm style, and focus on the outcasts and underdogs of society, this is an intriguing pair of classic O. Henry tales.
