Description
Dickens’s most famous ghost story was written in the autumn of 1843 as a reaction to the suffering of poor children during the early Victorian era. A Christmas Carol was fittingly published on 19th December that year and was an immediate and resounding success. A Christmas Carol is Charles Dickens’ popular novella set during the festive period. Recounting the story and life of the mean-spirited Ebenezer Scrooge, who has four visits that all represent a period in his life. Including the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley and the spirits of his Christmas Past, Present and Future. Every ghost influences his attitude towards others, but also how he sees and is impacting himself. And after these encounters, Ebenezer Scrooge is transformed into a kinder, and more giving man. A heartwarming tale of the triumph of kindness over selfishness, together with favourable treatment of the poor means A Christmas Carol has retained its appeal to readers for over 150 years. Many may be familiar with this story through the many adaptations for film, television, stage and opera. Presented in a high-quality Chinese-bound format with accompanying illustrations, A Christmas Carol Illustrated offers a beautiful edition of this much-loved festive classic.
