Story
O・ヘンリー(1862-1910)は、アメリカ・ノースカロライナ州グリーンズボロ生まれ。15歳から叔父が経営するドラッグストアで働き始め、19歳になるとテキサス州へ移って牧場で働く。その後、オースティンに居を構え、製薬会社や土地管理事務所に勤めたり議の九の出納係をしたりする。この時代にアソル・エスティスという女性と結婚し、彼女の勧めもあってスケッチ風の小品を書くようになる。銀行に勤めるかたわら新聞社の経営にも手を染めたが、多額の借金に追われ、銀行から公金横領の嫌疑をかけられて退職に追い込まれる。1896年に銀行の告発により逮捕されるが、裁判を目前に逃亡し、ニューオーリンズ、ホンジュラスと流転の生活を続ける。やがて妻危篤の知らせを受けて帰国し、1898年に自首。5年の実刑を受ける。獄中からも雑誌への投稿を続け、出獄後1902年にニューヨークに進出して本格的な文筆活動を開始。精力的に執筆を続け、一躍流行作家となるが、1910年、肝硬変と心臓病で生涯を終える。『最後の一葉』は、1907年に出版された短編集The Trimmed Lampに収められている。

Story
"Rieducazione con scasso" è un racconto breve pubblicato per la prima volta sul giornale Cosmopolitan nel 1903. Descrive il rientro in società del giovani rapinatore Jimmy Valentine. Nel 1910 il drammaturgo Paul Armstrong riadattò la storia in uno spettacolo teatrale di grande successo a Broadway, intitolato "Aliam Jimmy Valentine", successivamente trasformato in 3 diversi film nel 1915, 1920 e 1928. Il protagonista è ispirato all'incidente descritto ne "I Miserabili di Hugo". La storia fu inoltre adattata in una radio serie nel 1938.

Story
Four favorite tales from the pen of American short-story writer O. Henry that burst with his humor, pathos, and endearing observations on children, the poor, and dogs! In this collection: “The Ransom of Red Chief” (two kidnappers hatch a plot and get more than they bargain for!), “Memoirs of a Yellow Dog” (a put-upon pup and his master yearn for a better life), “The Cop and the Anthem” (all poor Soapy wanted was a warm bed for the winter), and “The Gift of the Magi” (the classic Christmas tale of love and giving from the heart).

Two tales from two of the great American humorists. In “A Dog’s Tale”, Mark Twain let’s the dog do the talking, in a heart-wrenching story of her loss of a pup at the hands of her human master. In “Memoirs of a Yellow Dog”, O. Henry lets the dog of the title spin a humorous tale of liberation and freedom from the confines of a drab New York life for himself and his master.
