Out upon merry Christmas! What good had it ever done to him? Ebenezer Scrooge is a bad - tempered skinflint who hates Christmas and all it stands for but a ghostly visitor foretells three apparitions who will thaw Scrooge's frozen heart. A Christmas Carol has gripped the public imagination since it was first published in 1843, and it is now as much a part of Christmas as mistletoe or plum pudding. This edition reprints the story alongside Dickens's four other Christmas Books: The Chimes The Cricket on the Hearth The Battle of Life and The Haunted Man. All five stories show Dickens at his unpredictable best jumbling together comedy and melodrama genial romance and urgent social satire in pursuit of his aim 'to awaken some loving and forbearing thoughts never out of season in a Christian land'.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: A Christmas Carol And Other Christmas Stories\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Dickens Charles, Douglas-Fairhurst, Robert (Professor Of English Literature; Tutorial Fellow, Magdalen College, University Of Oxford)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780198822394\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 496 Pages, 20 Black \u0026amp; White Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 12\/1\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\nSeries: Oxford World's Classics Hardback Collection\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Classic Fiction","brand":"Dickens Charles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49592340840753,"sku":"IN-G-9780198822394","price":20.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780198822394.jpg?v=1754873899","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780198822394-a-christmas-carol-and-other-christmas-stories","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
