    About this audiobook

    The timeless story of the Christmastime redemption of notorious miser Ebenzer Scrooge, Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol is amongst the best-loved works of English literature. Scrooge goes to bed one cold Christmas Eve, convinced his miserly ways are justified.

    During the night, he is visited by the ghost of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas Future, who show him what he has been missing in life and the error of his ways.

    A Christmas Carol was influential in re-popularizing old British Christmas traditions, many of which are still with us today.

    Charles Dickens

    Charles Dickens was born in 1812 near Portsmouth, where his father worked as a clerk. Living in London in 1824, Dickens was sent by his family to work in a blacking-warehouse, and his father was arrested and imprisoned for debt. Fortunes improved and Dickens returned to school, eventually becoming a parliamentary reporter. His first piece of fiction was published by a magazine in December 1832, and by 1836 he had begun his first novel, The Pickwick Papers. He focused his career on writing, completing fourteen highly successful novels, as well as penning journalism, shorter fiction and travel books. He died in 1870.
