The cheerful poverty of the Cratchit family in A Christmas Carol, is a sure-fire tear-jerker. At one public reading by Dickens in Boston, there were "so many pocket handkerchiefs it looked as if a snowstorm had gotten into the hall"--Sunday Express It has it all: a spooky ghost story, a heartwarming redemption and a great plot with a satisfyingly happy ending--The Times A story which, perhaps more than any other, sums up the spirit of the British Christmas--Sunday Telegraph One of the great achievements of British culture--D.J. Taylor But that story endures and retains the power to move us because it speaks to the human heart, and gives us hope when hope is fading--Tony Parsons, Mirror A little masterpiece...irresistible--Sunday Express After 150 years still have the power to fascinate readers--Contemporary Review Beautifully written and this re-designed cover is stunning--Devon Life
