Немезида и разносчик — зарисовка известного новеллиста конца XIX века О. Генри (англ. O. Henry, 1862–1910). Что случается, когда женское очарование разбивается о неприступную стену железного мужского спокойствия? Писатель также прославился благодаря рассказам "Фараон и хорал", "Сыщики", "Момент победы", "Закон и порядок", "День, который мы празднуем", "Тысяча долларов", "Багдадская птица" и "Орден золотого колечка". О. Генри, чье настоящее имя Уильям Сидни Портер, считается основоположником жанра "сказка большого города", где искрометный юмор сочетается с глубоким философским смыслом.
