The classic tale of Ebenezer Scrooge, his ghostly visitations and festive redemption.
Read by Sean Baker.
Written within a long tradition of the yuletide ghost story, Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol came to define not just a genre but an entire season.
Possibly the most interpreted and adapted novellas of all time, this unabridged version offers a full, and fully-fleshed, picture as intended by the author - something which would in his words offer a "sledge hammer blow" against the poverty he had witnessed, whilst giving readers something that would "haunt their houses pleasantly" during midwinter.
Relish the spirit of Christmas past, present and future with this offering from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Classic Novels series of unabridged audiobooks.
Producer: Martha Littlehailes
