A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

In 1843 Charles Dickens took up his pen to begin his ‘ghostly little book’ and so created A Christmas Carol and the mean-spirited Ebenezer Scrooge, one of the most memorable characters in literature. In weaving his enduring story of redemption, Dickens gave the world a tale that delights with every retelling and played a part in shipping the modern idea of Christmas.
