Narrated Archives samples the vast quantity of short stories by the prolific author O. Henry. Many of his stories explore themes of coincidence, fate, sacrifice, and the ironies of everyday life. His trademark "twist ending" became so renowned that it is sometimes referred to as an "O. Henry ending".

1. After Twenty Years - set in New York City with an ironic ending.
2. By Courier - As with many of O.Henry’s stories this story plays on the misinterpretation of messages and the importance of clear communication in relationships.
3. 3 “Mini” Stories - less than 200 words each

In this first episode we are introduced to Russian author Alexander Kuprin with a short story written as letter to a lover. The letter, written from the female perspective, is a melancholic story about regret, loss, and the bittersweet pain of fading memories, using the imagery of a desolate autumn garden with bright asters and dahlias to mirror the speaker's internal feelings. She compares the fleeting beauty of the autumn flowers to the poignancy of their past love and the anticipation of winter's harshness.
