Kurzbeschreibung
Dickens�s story of solitary miser Ebenezer Scrooge, who is taught the true meaning of Christmas by a series of ghostly visitors, has proved one of his most well-loved works. Ever since it was published in 1843 it has had an enduring influence on the way we think about the traditions of Christmas. Dickens�s other Christmas writings collected here include �The Story of the Goblins who Stole a Sexton�, the short story from The Pickwick Papers on which A Christmas Carol was based; along with shorter pieces drawn from the �Christmas Stories� that Dickens wrote annually for his weekly journals. In all of them Dickens celebrates the season as one of geniality, charity and remembrance.
