The book is beautifully written, however irony can be depressing. I ordered the book to read "The Ransom of Red Chef" and that story did not disappoint. If you ever had a 7 year old boy or had to watch a 7 year old boy you must read this story. It will leave you with a smile on you face. If you are looking for something quick to read I would recommend the book.

The king of irony. O. Henry's stories are delightful, funny, sentimental, and heartwarming.
