  5/5

  Книга сильно отличается от книг этой серии количеством страниц, еще бы - в книге 100 рассказов неподражаемого О.Генри.
  Книга в 2 раза толще прочих книг серии. Тем не менее, крепление клеем позволяет при аккуратном обращении сохранить книгу в целости и сохранности.
  Да, после прочтения внешний вид ее изменится не в лучшую сторону, но такие книги покупают ради содержания!
  Огромное удовольствие читать эти произведения в оригинале! И известные, и те, которые вы не найдете в классических переводных сборниках.
