内容简介Some historians argue that Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol may have "saved" the classic traditions of Christmas and morality at a time of epic decline for such traditions. Upon release in December 1843 the story was an instant success. A Victorian morality tale of a bitter old miser, Ebenezer Scrooge, A Christmas Carol tells the tale of his profound experience of redemption during the course of a Christmas Eve night.
媒体推荐"Marley's face. It was not in impenetrable shadow as the other objects in the yard were, but had a dismal light about it, like a bad lobster in a dark cellar." Ebenezer Scrooge is unimpressed by Christmas. He has no time for festivities or goodwill toward his fellow men and is only interested in money. Then, on the night of Christmas Eve, his life is changed by a series of ghostly visitations that show him some bitter truths about his choices." "Dickens' most influential book is a funny, clever, and hugely enjoyable story.
