Book Description
Editorial Reviews
About the Author
Charles John Huffam Dickens was the most popular English novelist of the Victorian era, and one of the most popular of all time. He created some of literature's most iconic characters, with the theme of social reform running throughout his work. The continuing popularity of his novels and short stories is such that they have never gone out of print. His work has been praised for its mastery of prose, and for its teeming gallery of unique personalities, by writers such as George Gissing and G. K. Chesterton, though the same characteristics have prompted others, such as Henry James and Virginia Woolf, to criticize him for sentimentality and implausibility.

Don't settle for an abridged version. Read the masterpiece...,
This review is from: A CHRISTMAS CAROL by Charles Dickens: Pictured by Arthur I. Keller - 1914 Reprint (2009) (Paperback)
Has any story been copied more times than A Christmas Carol?
It seems almost every year there is a new movie version. I hope all readers take time to read this original classic edition of A CHRISTMAS CAROL. Dickens' language remains humorous, descriptive and insightful and not inaccessible to most modern readers especially with the use of a good glossary. This book, in its reprinted edition, is a wonderful read at Christmas time. Don't settle for an abridged version. Read the masterpiece...
