O'Henry, el celebrado cuentista norteamericano, cuyo verdadero nombre era William Sidney Porter, nació en 1862 y murió en 1910. En su juventud erró por los vastos "estados" de su patria desempeñando los más diversos oficios, metiéndose en los más inesperados negocios. Estando en la cárcel, cumpliendo una condena por quiebra fraudulento, escribió sus primeras narraciones que mandó a los periódicos obteniendo tal éxito, que le decidió por la carrera de escritor en la que alcanzó un merecido renombre que perdura hasta nuestros días. Cultivó, con singular acierto, el cuento breve, emocionando a cientos de miles de lectores que en esas historias encontraban algo de sus propias vidas, sus sueños y sus fracasos. Agil, fresco, sin obsesiones, de temática constantemente renovada una fusión modernizada de Chejov y Maupassant se identificó sobre todo con lo gran ciudad de Nueva York, con sus hombres y sus mujeres que viven en cosas de pensión, trabajan en tiendas y oficinas, buscan a la primavera en los parques y conocen la inmenso soledad que puede desprenderse del marco de una ventana neoyorkina abierta de por en por, y a obscuras. Contó esas vidas humorísticamente, tiernamente, sin burlarse de ellas pero sin halagadas y fué, a su modo, un moralista típicamente americano. La COLECCION AUSTRAL, donde ya han aparecido los Cuentos de Nueva York del famoso autor, añade hoy a su biblioteca un nuevo tomo de O'Henry: EL ALEGRE MES DE MAYO Y OTROS CUENTOS, cuidadosamente vertido a nuestro idioma. Desde el que principia y da título al volumen, hasta el que lo finaliza: El Conde y el invitado o la boda todos son "cuentos de O Henry" es decir, concentrados momentos de la existencia de diferentes seres, apenas unos horas o unos días de sus vidas, pero que bastan para que nos enteremos de cómo eran, como son y cómo cumplirán hasta el fin el destino que les ha sido marcado. Dificil es, por lo tonto, señalar en estos cuentos a los más preferidos ya que en cada uno de ellos está aprisionada una faceta humano vista, tal vez, un poco irónicamente pero sin rencor y siempre bajo el velo de una tenue poesía cotidiana, ya que lo que puede suceder todos los días no deja de ser menos memorable en la vida de aquel a quien le acontece.
