A novel written by Mark Twain, a couple.
The Gift of the Maggie is a short story by O Henry, a famous American writer. It was written on the day before Christmas, when a young couple gave gifts to each other. As a result, their precious gifts turned into useless things, but they got something more precious than anything else-love, telling people to respect the love of others and learn to love others, which is an important manifestation of human civilization. The Gift of the Magi is also the name of an urban emotional TV series starring Wujiang and Ethan and directed by Ji Meng. Jim, the hero, is a small clerk whose salary is only enough to make ends meet, and Della, the heroine, is a virtuous and kind housewife. Their lives are poor, but Jim and Della both have a very precious treasure. Jim has a gold watch and Della has beautiful waterfall hair. In order to give gifts to each other at Christmas, Jim sold his gold watch and bought a set of pure tortoise shells with jewels on the edge for Della. Della sold her long hair and bought Jim a platinum watch chain. They all gave up their most precious things for each other, and the gifts they got became useless. Jim and Della, though just little people living at the bottom of society, are passionate about life and love each other deeply. In the face of these warm feelings, poverty can become insignificant. On Christmas Eve, two people still want to buy presents for each other. There are some exaggerated accidents in the story, which make the two protagonists living in embarrassment seem to be stretched. Through this slightly sad story, we can feel the warmth conveyed by O'Henry from desolation-the value of "gift".
