O. Henry
O. Henry wove several stories together into this highly episodic narrative, his only novel, taking his title and inspiration from Lewis Carroll's ballad of the walrus and the carpenter in Through the Looking-Glass.
The stories are set in the fictional country of Anchuria in Central America, a banana republic where larceny is rampant and revolution lurks in every impoverished back alley. O. Henry offers a cutting satire of contemporary politics and prejudices. Nevertheless, an essential middle-class morality prevails, in which lovers are reunited, poverty obliterated, character rewarded, and sentiment satisfied.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"Lloyd James navigates this murky area admirably, de-emphasizing the crude name-calling by voicing it largely without malice. He simply speaks the vernacular as naturally as he creates the characters' accents. James' agile pacing and overall breezy approach work favorably." (AudioFile)

Granted, I agree with his verdict on the ending, which he describes as “…the slender thread that binds together, though ever so slightly, the story that perhaps only the Walrus will understand.” I have to admit that I am not a walrus. Nevertheless, a good time was had by me, and can be by you, too. And Lloyd James makes that time even better, expressing O. Henry’s ironic tone and comic intentions exactly right.
