When A Christmas Carol was first published in 1843 it was an overnight success. A celebration of Christmas a tale of redemption and a critique on Victorian society Charles Dickens' atmospheric novella follows the miserly penny-pinching Ebenezer Scrooge who views Christmas as 'humbug'. It is only through a series of eerie life-changing visits from the ghost of his deceased business partner Marley and the spirits of Christmas past present and future that he begins to see the error of his ways. With heart-rending characters rich imagery and evocative language the hopeful message of A Christmas Carol remains as significant today as when it was first published.
