Dickens' classic redemptive tale is a modern parable - the story of one Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly Victorian money-lender to whom Christmas is 'humbug'. But when ghostly visitors come knocking one bleak Christmas Eve, he is forced to revisit his own past, as well as the present and future lives of those around him. A vision of his own grave succeeds at length in putting the Spring back into Scrooge's Wintry heart. 'A Christmas Carol' was an instant success and has remained in print...
More DescriptionDickens' classic redemptive tale is a modern parable - the story of one Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly Victorian money-lender to whom Christmas is 'humbug'. But when ghostly visitors come knocking one bleak Christmas Eve, he is forced to revisit his own past, as well as the present and future lives of those around him. A vision of his own grave succeeds at length in putting the Spring back into Scrooge's Wintry heart. 'A Christmas Carol' was an instant success and has remained in print ever since the first edition in December 1843. This imprint includes monochromatic renditions of John Leech's illustrations from the original publication.
