O. Henry
O. Henry was the pen name of American author William Sydney Porter (1862-1910), renowned for his short stories that often feature twist endings and witty narratives. His most famous work, 'Cabbages and Kings,' published in 1904, reflects his experiences in Honduras and introduces the concept of 'banana republics,' highlighting the influence of oligarchic and neocolonial dynamics on small tropical nations.
