Alles Jahre wieder: A Christmas Carol

Wie jedes Jahr im Advent werde ich auch heuer wieder die Weihnachtsgeschichte von Charles Dickens lesen - und heuer geht es sich sogar direkt am Heiligen Abend aus. Und nach dem schönen Roman über die Entstehungsgeschichte freue ich mich besonders darauf.
 
Mein Heilig-Abend-Buch:


Charles Dickens
A Christmal Carol
 
Description: On the night of Christmas Eve, Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by three Christmas spirits. The Ghost of Christmas Past confronts Scrooge with his youth, the Ghost of Christmas Present reveals the Cratchits' struggle amid poverty, and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come harrows Scrooge with dire visions of the future if he does not learn to treat his fellow man with kindness, generosity and compassion.
 
A Christmas Carol remains one of the most beloved Christmas stories of all time. Charles Dickens redefined the spirit and importance of Christmas and initiated a rebirth of seasonal merriment. The book played a significant role in reinventing Christmas with an emphasis on family, goodwill, and compassion.
