Critic reviews

"Both the tales and the narration by Michael Hanson are excellent....Hanson's delightful reading is a special treat; his carefully modulated and mellow voice helps transport the listener back to the early 20th century, when O. Henry wrote these tales." (Library Journal)

Easy listening

I grew up with the Gift of the Magi and The Ransom of Red Chief stories. I never knew these were O. Henry stories. I enjoyed his other stories in this collection. This was a nice and calming listen.

Very Enjoyable.

O Henry’s stories stand the test of time. His writing style is quaint but still totally clear and witty. The bonus here is the person narrating. He is a gem! He infused the stories with life and charm. Bravo.
