Book Overview

by Charles Dickens (Author), Devin Brown (Editor), Devin Brown (Annotations by)

"Bah!" said Scrooge, "Humbug!"


"Christmas a humbug, Uncle!" said Scrooge's nephew. "You don't mean that, I am sure?"

-----



On a cold, dark night in October 1843-during one of the long, solitary walks he liked to take-Charles Dickens came up with an idea that would change the world. As he looked around the city of London, he saw that many of the traditional customs of Christmas so popular in the past had fallen out of fashion. In some homes the holiday was not even celebrated at all. And so he came up with an idea for a story that would help put the Christmas spirit back in Christmas-not just in England, but all over the world, and not just for his time, for all time.


For nearly two hundred years, A Christmas Carol has been one of the world's best-known and best-loved stories-one that readers return to again and again for its timeless message about love and redemption. The Owl's Nest Classics Edition brings Dickens's masterpiece to life with annotations and thoughts for reflection that will engage young readers' hearts and minds and will inspire them see their own lives in a new way.

About Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens was born on February 7, 1812, in Landport, Portsea, England. He died in Kent on June 9, 1870. The second of eight children of a family continually plagued by debt, the young Dickens came to know not only hunger and privation, but also the horror of the infamous debtors' prison and the evils of child labor. A turn of fortune in the shape of a legacy brought release from the nightmare of prison and "slave" factories and afforded Dickens the opportunity of two years' formal schooling at Wellington House Academy. He worked as an attorney's clerk and newspaper reporter until his Sketches by Boz (1836) and The Pickwick Papers (1837) brought him the amazing and instant success that was to be his for the remainder of his life. In later years, the pressure of serial writing, editorial duties, lectures, and social commitments led to his separation from Catherine Hogarth after twenty-three years of marriage. It also hastened his death at the age of fifty-eight, when he was characteristically engaged in a multitude of work.
