O. Henry: The Gift of the Magi
The usual price $34.95/
A touching story about two poor lovers masterfully illustrated by Patrick James Lynch - the genius of modern book illustration.
The Magi, as you know, were wise elders - wizards who brought their gifts to the Infant in a manger. From them came the custom of giving gifts at Christmas. Since they were wise, they chose their gifts wisely, for sure providing for the possibility of replacement in case of a coincidence. I told you incoherently a simple story about two stupid children in a rented apartment who, quite imprudently, sacrificed their greatest treasures for each other.
