Charles Dickens
A classic novella written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly and cold-hearted old man who despises Christmas and all forms of joy and generosity. As the tale unfolds, Scrooge confronts his past, present, and possible future through the visitations of three spirits, leading to a profound transformation of his character and outlook on life. The opening of this tale introduces us to a grim and foggy Christmas Eve, where we meet the bitter and thrifty Scrooge, completely dismissive of the holiday spirit and its associated festivities. As Scrooge interacts with his cheerful nephew, Fred, and charitable visitors, his disdain for Christmas and his indifference to the suffering of the poor become evident. We also learn about the ghost of Jacob Marley, Scrooge’s long-dead business partner, who will return to warn Scrooge about the consequences of his miserly ways. This sets the stage for the spectral encounters that will challenge Scrooge’s views and ultimately lead him toward redemption.
