OverviewThis annotated version of A Christmas Carol includes the full original novel, an author's biography and an in-depth analysis. This novel is a great story, that even written as a Christmas story, is just as entertaining all year long, and should definitely be read by anyone who loved fictive classics! The tale begins on a cold, bleak, biting Christmas Eve exactly seven years after the death of Ebenezer Scrooge's business partner, Jacob Marley. Scrooge is a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous, old sinner who has no place in his life for kindness, compassion or charity. He hates Christmas, calling it humbug. Returning home that evening, Scrooge is visited by Marley's ghost: he warns Scrooge to change his ways lest he undergo the same miserable afterlife as himself... Charles Dickens (1812-1870) has been called the man who invented Christmas. A Christmas Carol is a long novella he wrote in 1843.
