Step into the humble apartment of Jim and Della Young on a fateful Christmas Eve in this enchanting holiday classic.
With just $1.87 to her name, and desperate to buy her beloved husband a worthy gift, Della makes a heart-wrenching decision that sets in motion one of literature's most beautifully ironic tales of love and sacrifice.
Set against the backdrop of turn-of-the-century New York, this tender story – full of warmth and sincerity – captures the true spirit of Christmas giving.
O. Henry's masterful prose weaves humor, poverty, and unconditional love into a tale that has touched hearts for over a century.
