About this ebook

Dennis Corrigan is a slavedriver. He exploits his workers, pays them inhumanly low wages, and essentially makes their lives hell. Like many of his workers, Martin suffers from an addiction to smoking. Fueled by his miserable circumstances, his addiction becomes murderous. This transformative short story explores the limits of humanity and addiction. Not without surprises, this captivating tale is unmissable for fans of Oscar Wilde.

William Sidney Porter (1862-1919), known simply as O. Henry, was a prolific American author of humorous literary pieces. His fame came exceptionally quickly and he became a bestselling author of short story collections. The most notable of which being "Cabbages and Kings", "The Voice of the City", and "Strictly Business." In fact, his legacy was so great that the ‘O. Henry Award’ was established to celebrate the best short stories. His vivid storytelling is perfect for fans of Roald Dhal.
